Astronomical Events and Observations for March 2018

community · March 2018

March 2018 features a Full Moon at the start of the month, a planetary alignment of Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter visible before dawn in the first week, the March Equinox on March 20, and a Blue Moon on March 31.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
