A lunar eclipse happens when Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon. Ideal viewing times are at the night when the eclipse reaches totality.

Comets become visible when they approach the Sun, displaying a visible coma or tail. The best viewing times are variable and depend on the comet's orbit and proximity to Earth.

Meteor showers are celestial events where numerous meteors radiate from one point in the night sky. The best time to view is after midnight, away from light pollution.

Transits occur when planets like Mercury or Venus pass directly between the Earth and the Sun. Ideal viewing times are during the transit period, which is rare and can last several hours.

The Northern and Southern Lights are natural light displays in the Earth's sky, predominantly seen in high-latitude regions. Best viewing times are on clear winter nights, away from city lights.

A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between Earth and the Sun, obscuring the Sun temporarily. Ideal viewing times are during the brief period of totality at your specific location.
