 While the Total Solar Eclipse will take place on December 4, the Super New Moon will begin on December 3. Here's all you need to know.

 The eclipse will begin around 11.32 am when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align to produce a partial lunar eclipse.

 ISRO and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) calculations revealed that the radial spacing between the two spacecraft would be less than 100 metres.

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson in a statement said the agency would continue to monitor the debris in the coming days and beyond to guarantee the safety of our crew in orbit.

On November 19, a tiny portion of the partial phase of the moon eclipse will be visible from regions of Andhra Pradesh and Assam.
 

Onboard the Crew Dragon were NASA astronauts Shane Kimbrough and Megan McArthur, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Akihiko Hoshide, and European Space Agency astronaut Thomas Pesquet coming home after a nearly six-month-long science mission at the International Space Station.
 

The first seat sold for $28 million (approximately Rs. 206 crores) in an online auction, but the buyer cancelled their travel.

According to NASA, it will only pass close to Earth on December 11, despite being 'egg-shaped' and about three times the size of a football field. 

According to the China Manned Space Agency, this is the first spacewalk involving a female astronaut in Chinese history.
