Sturgeon Moon 2025: When and where to watch the rare 2- night full Moon and why is it special

In August 2025, the Sturgeon Moon offers a rare spectacle, gracing the sky on two consecutive evenings. This full moon, named for the abundance of sturgeon fish, aligns with Shravana Purnima in India and will be visible post-sunset on August 8 and 9. Skywatchers in North America can witness stunning moonrises during twilight, with similar timings on both nights.
