The Spring It is already here and with it comes two eclipses: lunar eclipseof the penumbra type and another of Sun, which is expected overall. It’s not the only thing that will appear in the sky. As for the constellations, at the beginning of spring at dusk some typical winter constellations can be seen, such as Orion, Canis Major or Gemini, and as the season progresses they get closer to the Sun and give way to constellations more characteristic of spring.
In this way, Leo will stand out with its striking inverted question mark shape ending in the star Regulus; Maiden with the bright tip and the mountain dog with the red star Arthur. Other phenomena of astronomical interest in spring are: Meteorite shower of Poetry whose maximum is expected April 22ndand the Eta Aquarids around May 5th. The first, the Lyrids, will not be clearly visible in the sky this year as “their maximum will occur very close to the full moon in April,” notes IGN. Yes, the Eta Aquarids, which come from the fragments of Comet 1/P Halley, will be easier to detect.
