Rare Partial Lunar Eclipse to Paint Moon Red Across Americas and UK

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
Squirrels should stash their nuts early Thursday to catch the rare 96% eclipse before clouds ruin the view for UK acorn collectors.
💡 Why it matters
This celestial event offers millions a rare chance to witness Earth's shadow and atmospheric scattering in action, inspiring public interest in astronomy.

A near total lunar eclipse will darken 96% of the moon on Thursday night, visible across North and South America, while UK stargazers may see a red 'blood moon' early Friday if clouds clear.
