The Moon and a Sparkling Star!

Look up on April 12th! The bright, round moon will be next to a super sparkly star named Spica.

Spica is a giant, blue star, much bigger and brighter than our sun; it's like a super-powered lightbulb!

The light from Spica takes a super long time to reach us—250 years to travel through space!

It's a pretty sight, especially if you're in the southern part of the world; you'll see them shining together.
