2. Northern Lights
When: After sunset, a few weeks on both sides on Thursday, March 20, 2025.
Where: north night sky.
March 2025 can be one of the best months for recognizing the northern lights. Not only because our star is close to the “solar maximum”-of its 11-year sun cycle, but because the spring equinox on March 20 brings the earth's axis perpendicular to the sunwind, which can cause an increase in aurora activity. Those in the northern US states, Canada and regions near the Arctic circle will have the best chances.
A conjunction of the moon and Mars is on the cards for sky observers this month.
3. A large moon and a bright Mars
When: After sunset on Saturday, March 8, 2025.
Where: the southern night sky.

The 72-illuminated Gibbous moon appear about a degree from the red planet and ensures a striking sight. The Mars shines with a reddish color and should be easy to see without equipment.
