"February's Micromoon: How and When to See the Snow Moon"
TL;DR Summary
February's full moon, known as the snow moon, will peak on Saturday and will be a "micromoon," appearing slightly smaller than usual due to its farther distance from Earth. This year's snow moon will be seen shining next to constellation Leo's brightest star, Regulus, and will be dimmer than usual, allowing for better visibility of nearby celestial objects. Additionally, 2024 will feature multiple eclipses and meteor showers, including a total solar eclipse on April 8 and a multitude of meteor events throughout the year.
