There will be a partial lunar eclipse tonight.

Space.com notes that the moon will make a small dip through the Earth’s shadow, creating a minor eclipse, on Friday night.

The Slooh Space Camera will offer skywatchers the chance to see the minor eclipse via its live feed. The webcast will start at 11:37 p.m.

“It will thus be impossible to notice anything out of the ordinary concerning the moon’s overall appearance,” Space skywatching columnist Joe Rao wrote. “It will, in fact look like any other full moon.”

For residents of Australia, a super moon will shine on Saturday.

“It is significant for Australians because it will affect the finance sector of the national horoscope,” Astrologer Dadhici Toth told the Herald Sun newspaper. “The full effect won’t be seen for another month, but the economic bubble is about to burst.”
