The day of March 18, 2026, has brought various updates and news from different spheres, including astronomy, puzzle games, and online presence. Here's a rundown of what happened and what you need to know.
Moon Phase
The current moon phase is Waning Crescent, with the next Full Moon predicted to take place on April 1. According to NASA's Daily Moon Guide, the moon takes about 29.5 days to orbit Earth, going through eight different phases. These changing shapes are called the lunar phases, and there are eight in total:
- New Moon - The Moon is between Earth and the sun, so the side we see is dark (in other words, it's invisible to the eye).
- Other phases include Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, and Waning Crescent.
