The full snow moon will rise on Wednesday, Feb. 12, with the “Heart of the Lion,” or Regulus, the brightest star in the constellation Leo.

There will also be two total lunar eclipses that occur during the March and September full moon events. A lunar eclipse, which causes the moon to look dark or dimmed, occurs when Earth is between the sun and moon and the three celestial objects line up in a row so that the moon passes into our planet’s shadow.
