Get ready for a beautiful night sky this Sunday

Written by: , September 25th, 2015

We are in for a celestial treat this weekend! The moon will be at its biggest, brightest and most colorful!

A lunar eclipse will coincide with a supermoon Sunday evening, an event that has not occurred since 1982. Since the moon will be in its closest proximity to Earth, it will appear abot 14 percent larger than usual. Since the moon will pass behind behind the Earth and into its shadow, it will also appear to have a red tint.

As a certified Dark Sky Park, Furnace Creek Resort is a great place to view this rare event.
