Might have to dust off the telescope for this. It hasn't gotten much love as of late.

Wouldn't you know it - it's cloudy over Central Mass this morning! Hopefully it'll clear up by tonight, I'm always up for a good celestial event!

Question: When the Wolf Man is transformed into a werewolf during a full
moon, does he transform back into a man when the full moon is eclipsed?

I went out and couldnt even find the moon Man, i wanted to see my 3rd celestial event

One of my life goals is to see a full on solar eclipse though. I've seen a lunar one before.

Edit: I found it
