May's Cosmic Delights: Supermoons, Meteors & Planets

It's April 29th.

Welcome in.

This is Edinburgh News Today, where local news meets AI.

I'm Corey with the story.

May's nice sky over Edinburgh and Lothian brings some cosmic treats, starting with an

invisible new supermoon on the 16th at 9.01 pm.

Plus two full micromoons.

The first on the first at 6.23 pm, and the second on the 31st at 9.45 am, which counts

as a calendar blue moon, since it's the second full one in the month.

Sun shiss from Aries to Taurus on the 14th at 5.40 am, pulling back from Earth, while

days stretch from 15 hours 23 minutes.

On the first to 17 hours, 9 minutes by month's end, cutting night by nearly 2 hours and keeping

things bright even after the 5th.

Moon dances through Virgo to Afiyukas, hitting Paragy on the 17th at 2.30 pm for that supermoon

closeness and apogee around the.

Full moons make them look smaller, meanwhile, Venus shines bright as the evening star in

the west, and Jupiter steals the show all night in Gemini.

Edda acquires meteor shower from Halley's comet peaks on the 6th around 3.00 am, with

up to 50 meteors per hour for 90 minutes before dawn.

Despite the moons glow, Kesh the week 8 alerts peaking 11th, with just 3 per hour under

darker skies.

Madness like Saturn peaked during twilight late month, Mars stays hidden by day and constellations

like the spring triangle with Arturus Denevola, and Spike dominates Southeast Grab binoculars

for messier galaxies near Zenith.

Mid month and soak in the vibes before summer triangle rises east after midnight.
