Total Lunar Eclipse to Turn Moon Red on March 13-14, 2025
A total lunar eclipse, also known as a "blood moon," will occur on March 13-14, 2025, visible across North America; the moon will appear red due to the refraction of sunlight through Earth's atmosphere, with totality lasting 65 minutes.

Northern Lights Visible in Parts of the Northern U.S. on Friday
High-speed solar winds may make the aurora borealis visible in parts of the northern U.S. on Friday, with Alaska having the highest probability, followed by states like Washington, Montana, and Minnesota, according to NOAA; the increased visibility is due to the sun's current solar maximum.

First Observation of Magnetic Field Around Planet-Forming Star
For the first time, astronomers observed the magnetic field around HD 142527, a young star 512 light-years away with a protoplanetary disk, using the Atacama Large Millimetesubmillimeter Array (ALMA) in February, which could significantly advance our understanding of how planets form.
