In 2025, a new star should appear in the firmamentat least for a few days. According to astronomers, everything has indicated for months that a stellar explosion will occur in the “T Coronae Borealis” system, located 2700 light years from Earth.
Another phenomenon, the Sun will partially eclipse twicebut only the first eclipse, on March 29, will be visible from Switzerland. The Moon will begin to move in front of the Sun at 11:17 a.m. and the highest point of obscuration will be reached at 12:04 p.m. At that time, the Sun will be 14% obscured above Bern. The second partial eclipse, on September 21, 2025, will only be visible from the South Pacific and New Zealand.
Two eclipses are also planned for the Moon in 2025. On March 14 and September 7, the Earth will come between the Moon and the Sun, completely obscuring the Moon. The first, however, will not be entirely visible in our country. When the Moon sets in Bern at 6:50 a.m., it will only be partially eclipsed. During the eclipse of September 7, the Moon will, however, be entirely in the Earth’s shadow as soon as it rises at 7:55 p.m. From 8:52 p.m., the first rays of the Sun will once again reach the edge of the lunar surface.
