"Stargazing Delight: 3 Space Events to Watch This May Weekend"

This weekend, skywatchers can witness three celestial events: the Aquariids meteor shower, the May flower moon, and a penumbral lunar eclipse. The best time to see the meteor shower is just before dawn on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, with up to 20 meteors per hour. The lunar eclipse will be visible in Africa, Asia, and Australia, causing a dimming of the lunar surface. The collision of these events may hinder visibility, but enthusiasts can still enjoy the show.
