Celestial Celebration: Moon Party, Aurora Chances, and Midnight Conjunction

Skies were clear on August 2nd, allowing for a memorable moonrise over Lake Superior in Duluth, Minnesota. People gathered to witness the eclipse-orange moon and capture its beauty on their phones. In the coming days, there will be a close conjunction of the last quarter moon and Jupiter, visible with binoculars or a small telescope. Additionally, there is a chance to see the aurora on August 7-8, coinciding with a minor geomagnetic storm.
