English Heritage | Major Lunar Standstill Moonrise, Live from Stonehenge (Online Only) @EnglishHeritage | Uploaded 3 months ago | Updated 1 day ago
Please note - this is online only.
Watch the southernmost moonrise during the major lunar standstill LIVE from Stonehenge with our FREE livestream. 🌕
Stonehenge is famous for its alignments with the sun, but did you know that the ancient monument may have also been carefully designed to align with the movements of the Moon?
A rare astronomical phenomenon takes place this year, when moonrise and moonset are furthest along the horizon. It’s believed these lunar movements may have been observed during the early phase of Stonehenge. Tune into our livestream to witness the southernmost moonrise from home. Experts from the Royal Astronomical Society and Oxford, Leicester and Bournemouth Universities will take you on a journey into the ancient mysteries of Stonehenge and its lunar connections.
This is online only. There will be no access to Stonehenge. Please do not travel to the site.
