Jordan witnesses rare Muharram 1448 sky show
At dawn on Tuesday, the full moon of the month of Muharram 1448 AH was complete in the first astronomical phase after the summer solstice.

The full moon remains visible throughout the night and reaches its peak at midnight. It may also appear orange or reddish due to atmospheric effects, providing an excellent opportunity for astronomy enthusiasts to capture stunning photos. This day coincides with International Asteroid Day, during which the Jordanian Astronomical Society continues to organize global seminars to raise awareness about the potential risks asteroids pose to Earth.
