If you like helicopters, come check them out in person at our Vertical Flight exhibition!

👀 A full Moon and a partial lunar eclipse will light up the night sky this evening! 🌑

At its maximum, 12 minutes past midnight in Ottawa, more than 96% of the Moon will be covered by Earth's darkest shadow, causing it to dim and take on a reddish-orange glow. This will be the best lunar eclipse visible in North America until the end of 2028!

If the skies are clear, just look up and enjoy! 🌙
