A lunar eclipse is set to occur this week, coinciding with the full Sturgeon Moon of August. This event will be a partial lunar eclipse, with the Earth's shadow covering 96 percent of the Moon.

The eclipse will begin at 10:34 p.m. on Thursday and will reach its maximum point. Lunar eclipses happen during a full moon, when the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon.

Further details about the eclipse, including its timing and visibility, are available from the source. The event is expected to be a notable cosmic spectacle for sky observers.
