Sky‑Spectacle Alert: Rare Northern Lights Could Paint U.S. Skies Tonight—Here’s the Science, the Map and the Expert Warnings You Need

Night Sky Tonight, November 12, 2025: Severe Auroras Possible, Taurid ‘Fireballs,’ and a Close Mercury–Mars Pairing

Updated: Wednesday, November 12, 2025 TL;DR (What to watch tonight) Breaking: Severe geomagnetic storm could supercharge tonight’s auroras The U.S. Space Weather Prediction Center reports G4 (Severe) geomagnetic storm levels were reached at 01:20 UTC on Nov. 12, with storming expected to continue into the night. In practical terms, that greatly boosts the odds of seeing the northern lights unusually far south (or the southern lights farther north in Australia/New Zealand) when local skies are dark and clear. Keep watch after dusk, around local midnight, and toward dawn; auroras can surge in waves. NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center NOAA also

What Is the Beaver Moon and Why Does It Matter? Each month’s full moon carries a traditional name tied to seasonal rhythms. November’s full moon is widely known as the “Beaver Moon.” According to the Old Farmer’s Almanac, this name harkens back to a time when beavers finish preparations for winter – gathering food and retreating to their lodges once ponds start to freezeeconomictimes.indiatimes.com. It was also the prime season for trappers in North America to catch beavers for their thick winter pelts during the fur trade eraeconomictimes.indiatimes.com.

Timeanddate summarizes it neatly: “Full Moon is the only phase where the Moon is up all night.” Time and Date Later today, around 22:30 UTC, the Moon hits perigee (its closest point this month), tightening the geometry into what popular usage calls a supermoon. NASA’s definition: “A ‘supermoon’ occurs when a full Moon coincides with the Moon’s closest approach to Earth in its elliptical orbit, [perigee].” The result is

November’s full moon – known as the Beaver Moon – will reach its peak illumination on the morning of November 5, 2025, and it’s no ordinary full moon.

Double Meteor Shower Spectacle: Draconid and Orionid Displays Will Light Up October’s Night Sky

Meteor Mania Incoming: Supermoon, Fireballs and Aurora Alerts in Early November 2025

Major Meteor Showers Lighting Up Early November Early November’s sky features long-running meteor showers rather than any single dramatic outburst. The Southern Taurids (active late Sept–Nov 12, peak ~Nov 5) and Northern Taurids (Oct 13–Dec 2, peak ~Nov 9) are joined by the annual Leonid stream (active Nov 3–Dec 2, peak Nov 17). AMS notes that these two Taurid sources and the Leonids “keep the skies active” in November, making it one of the better months for northern observersamsmeteors.org.

Beaver Supermoon 2025: Get Ready for the Biggest, Brightest Full Moon of the Year

What Is a Supermoon? A supermoon is not an official astronomical term, but rather a popular way to describe a full moon that coincides with the Moon’s perigee (its closest point to Earth in its elliptical orbit). As NASA explains, the Moon’s orbit is oval-shaped, so full moons can occur at varying distances. When a full moon happens near perigee, the Moon appears larger and brighter in our skylivescience.com. In fact, NASA notes that the full Moon can look up to ~14% bigger and 30% brighter at perigee than at its farthest point (apogee)livescience.com. Such perigee full moons (“supermoons”) typically

Meteor Storm or Moonlit Fizzle? Draconid ‘Dragon’ Meteor Shower Peaks Tonight with Skywatchers on Alert

The Draconids: A “Dragon” in the Night Sky Every October, the Draconid meteor shower gives skywatchers a chance – however slim – to see fireballs from the Dragon. The Draconids occur when Earth passes through dust debris shed by Comet 21P/Giacobini–Zinner, a small periodic comet that orbits the sun every 6.6 yearsts2.tech. As these cometary bits hit Earth’s atmosphere at a relatively languid pace, they burn up and streak across the sky as meteors (often called “shooting stars”)ts2.tech. The Draconids take their name from the constellation Draco, from which the meteors appear to radiate. Because Draco is a northern constellation (its “head” near the dragon’s
