According to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the month of August showcases a particularly eventful sky. On August 12, a total solar eclipse will traverse northern regions of Russia, Greenland, Iceland, and northern Spain, while viewers across the United States, from Alaska to North Carolina, will experience a partial eclipse. This day also marks the New Moon and the climax of the Perseid meteor shower, which will be visible without moonlight interference. Additionally, Venus will be at its greatest eastern elongation from August 14 to 16. The month will conclude on August 27 with a partial lunar eclipse that will cover approximately 93% of the Moon's surface.
