Current events on Earth can get you down, and life here on the ground can sometimes feel monotonous. But staring up at the starry sky is a surefire way to put your problems in perspective, and is also simply a great way to spend a night. Some nights, though, are more special than others. In 2023, there are dozens of beautiful and beguiling celestial events that are sure to hold your attention and push worldly troubles from your mind. From meteor showers to eclipses and supermoons, there are more than enough opportunities in 2023 to bask in the brilliance of space.

The month of August is a special one as it features two supermoons! The first, known as the Sturgeon Moon, rose on Tuesday, August 1. Photos captured from around the world showed just how bright and spectacular it was. But if you missed it, don't worry! A second full moon will occur at the end of August, and what's more, it's also a supermoon. It's rare for there to be more than one full moon in a month, and when it occurs, the second one is called a blue moon. This will be visible on Wednesday, August 30.
