00:00Tonight, the moon disappears completely, but it's not an eclipse. It's something rarer,
00:05a black moon. A black moon isn't dark or glowing. It's invisible. It happens when we get either
00:11two new moons in one month or the third new moon in a season that has four. Both are rare
00:16calendar quirk. On August 23, 2025, we'll see a seasonal black moon, the third new moon in summer.
00:23That means the night sky will be darker than usual, perfect for spotting the Milky Way or
00:28meteor showers. Some call it mysterious, even ominous, but there's nothing supernatural here.
00:34It's just a cosmic timing trick, like a blue moon. You won't see the black moon itself, but you'll see
00:39the stars brighter than ever. The next chance? Not until 2027 or 2028, so enjoy the darkness while it
00:45lasts.
