The skies of Jordan and the Arab region are preparing for a unique astronomical event: the conjunction of the Moon with Spica, one of the brightest stars in the constellation Virgo, on Tuesday evening. The Moon will be in its waxing crescent phase and will appear to align with the star at a distance of about 2.2 degrees at 11:11 PM Jordan time. Although the star and the Moon are roughly 250 light-years apart, this is merely a visual phenomenon caused by their positions in the sky. Sky observers are advised to stay away from light sources and to keep their telescope lenses clean for better viewing.
