March 2026 is set to be an exciting month for sky watchers, with several spectacular celestial events, including a total lunar eclipse.
The month will feature the full Worm Moon and the March equinox, attracting both casual stargazers and professional astronomers.
The Worm Moon gets its name from early Native American tribes. It marks the time of year when earthworms start to appear again as the winter snow and ice begin to melt, signaling the arrival of spring.
Astronomy enthusiasts can look forward to observing the changing skies, as the lunar eclipse and other events provide a unique opportunity to witness the wonders of space. The Worm Moon, combined with the equinox, also offers a chance to enjoy the seasonal changes both on Earth and in the sky.
March promises memorable nights for anyone interested in the stars, planets, and natural cycles of the Earth and Moon.
