A partial lunar eclipse will be visible across Southern California Thursday night, giving skywatchers a chance to see the moon take on a striking red, copper color.
To witness any of these solar eclipse events, be sure to use certified eclipse glasses or a handheld solar viewer to shield your eyes from the sun's harmful rays and observe the event safely.
A new full moon is arriving in September, also known as "harvest moon" as summer comes to a close and fall is making its entrance.
Looking at the sun without properly made eclipse glasses can result in severe eye injury, from temporary vision impairment to permanent blindness.
Here's where to send those eclipse glasses you no longer need.
Southern California may not have been in the path of totality, but many residents were happy to get a glimpse of the partial solar eclipse.
