  The Explore Alliance is excited to announce our 47th Global Star Party that is set to bring together astronomers from around the globe to celebrate the upcoming Total Lunar Eclipse of the Supermoon in an epic two-part livestream event. 

  The first session is scheduled to start at 8 p.m CDT on May 25th, and the second session will commence at 4:30 a.m. CDT on May 26th. The second part of the event will feature astrophotographers as they attempt to capture live views through their telescopes of this Supermoon eclipse. 

    A total lunar eclipse occurs when a perfect alignment of the Sun, Earth and Moon causes the full moon to be shrouded by Earth's shadow. During the event, the same phenomenon that gives our sunsets their beautiful, colorful glow will cast the Moon in some shade of burnt reddish-orange. How red the Moon will actually appear depends on Earth's atmospheric conditions, such as dust levels and humidity, which affect the way sunlight is filtered and refracted to light the lunar surface. The total phase of the eclipse will last for 15 minutes beginning at 6:11 a.m. CDT. The partial phase will last for 187 minutes and begins at 4:45 a.m. CDT. 

  This interactive livestream event, which will be simulcast free on Explore Scientific's social media channels (connect here), will be the 47th Global Star Party hosted by the Explore Alliance — the formal educational outreach organization supported by Explore Scientific — since the Covid-19 pandemic brought most in-person star party events to a halt last spring.
