Look up at the night sky on International Observe the Moon Night

Our beautiful, ever-present, yet sometimes elusive moon is in the spotlight tonight for International Observe the Moon Night.

This night is dedicated to taking pictures and admiring the night sky with the moon at the center stage of it all.

Action News Jax would love to see your pictures of the moon as well. You can share pictures with us on our actionnewsjax.com/share-with-us page.

The Marshall Space Flight Center’s Planetary Missions Program and the U.S. Space & Rocket Center will also be featuring the moon in its hour-long Virtual Observation Party starting at 7:00 p.m. Watch it live here.
