If you’re a sky gazer you are gonna love this Friday.  Three major celestial events will light up the sky at the same time on Friday (February 10th.) Here’s the line up - the convergence will consist of a "Snow Moon," a lunar eclipse, and a comet passing all on the same night!

Three for the price of none!

A “Snow Moon” simply describes the full moon of February; a lunar eclipse is when the earth is directly in front of the sun, which stops the sun's light from reaching the moon, and makes the moon appear red; and the comet, named Comet 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdušáková shows up every five and a quarter years.   Happy sky watching!  ( Elite Daily)
