A total lunar eclipse will be visible from Dubai — here's when and where to see it
Touted as *the* biggest cosmic event of the year, the total lunar eclipse is absolutely unmissable. This occurs when the earth gets between the sun and the moon, temporarily blocking the sunlight from the moon. As a result, we'll see what is called a 'blood moon'. A 'blood moon' is essentially the description given to the appearance of the moon during a total lunar eclipse as it takes on a reddish hue. You'll see a full moon, which then takes on a reddish hue as Earth's shadow begins to swallow it. It's set to be visible from the UAE and the rest of Dubai between Thursday September 7 and Friday September 8, wherever the skies are clear. While the total lunar eclipse will be visible with the naked eye, it'll be much more spectacular and impressive with a telescope or a pair of binoculars. The eclipse progresses through several phases: penumbral, partial, total, back to partial, and finally penumbral again. The entire lunar eclipse lasts for a few hours, with the total eclipse phase lasting anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. Dubai Astronomy Group will stream the full lunar eclipse from Dubai, offering a unique opportunity to witness the moon passing into earth's shadow in real time. The group will attempt to feature a special shot capturing the eclipse with the Burj Khalifa in the frame, and will include real-time coverage from around the world. A large public viewing event will also be hosted by Dubai Astronomy Group, which will be announced at a later date on their social media channels and website. Top blood moon viewing spots in the UAE Al Sadeem Astronomy Centre (Credit: Supplied) Located in Abu Dhabi's Al Wathbah, this centre, which opened in 2016, offers a guided tours and night sky observation via traditional and smart telescopes (which are the size of a backpack). Events are usually on during key dates space calendar and you can book spots online. Dhs300(adults), Dhs100 (kids aged 8-17 years). Entry only by booking. Al Wathbah, Abu Dhabi, (02 642 6007). Al Quaa Milky Way Spot A quiet and open spot (away from night pollution) is always a good bet for stargazing. Around 90 minutes from Abu Dhabi towards Al Ain, is the Al Quaa Milky Way Spot. You'll need a 4×4 to get there and be apt at desert driving. It has its own location tag on Google Maps (23.604633,54.750256.) and is one place where you are sure to see something mesmerizing in the sky. Free. Open 24 hours, 7 days a week. Abu Dhabi. Shuweihat Island If you are interested in seeing a place that looks spectacular day or night then Shuweihat Island is a must. Around a four-hour drive from Dubai, you'll find salt flats and serenity. A 4×4 car is recommended when visiting. Free. Shuwaihat island. Hatta Hajar mountain location Hatta, which is just an hour and a half away from Dubai, can be a good spot to see the night sky but you should be aware that the area does suffer from light pollution. In the cooler months, there's plenty to do in the area from exploring Hatta Wadi Hub and Hatta Dam to looking around Hatta Heritage Village. Other activities it's known for are hiking and mountain biking. If you want to make a trip of it there are also options to camp, glamp or stay in a hotel. Free. Hatta. Looking for other things to do?

Beckhams' fresh sting as Brooklyn declares love for Peltz family in renewal vows
Intimate details of Brooklyn Beckham's vows in his renewal ceremony with wife Nicola Peltz have emerged, spelling fresh heartache for his parents. Chef Brooklyn, 26, and actress Nicola, 30, married in a lavish ceremony in 2022 at the Peltz family's £92million oceanfront mansion in Florida. While their first guest list comprised not only family but also A-listers such as Eva Longoria and Serena and Venus Williams, when they decided to renew their vows, it was a smaller affair. So much smaller, in fact, that Brooklyn's own family was noticeably absent, as rumours continue to swirl that the eldest Beckham boy has fallen out with his dad, Sir David, 50, and mum, Victoria, 51. Their wedding vow renewal took place on August 2 in Westchester County in front of Nicola's relatives, comprising 200 guests and, of course, another bridal gown, this time a remodelled version of her mum's own dress. It's now been revealed how former photographer Brooklyn had only fond words for his in-laws, having penned a 'heartfelt tribute' to billionaire tycoon Nelson Peltz, 83, and wife Claudia, 70, for the romantic occasion. A source close to the lovebirds told The Mirror that Brooklyn 'spoke movingly' about the Peltz clan. 'He spoke from the heart—and at the centre of his heart is Nicola who he loves very dearly, but also the Peltz family, who have really stuck by his side.' They added: 'He wanted to recognise them all and was determined to do them all justice.' It's believed there was no similar tribute to his own parents, who got married in 1999. As for the rest of the Beckham brood, they were also not invited to the vow renewal, with the likes of grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles only finding out about the ceremony via articles online. Rumours of a rift in camp Beckham first arose when Brooklyn and Nicola failed to show at Sir David's starry 50th bash earlier this year, where the rest of his siblings celebrated long into the night. In the months since, while neither party has explicitly commented on the flying accusations, there have been plenty of subtle and cryptic digs made on social media, whether it be brother Romeo posting quotes about 'telling lies' or Brooklyn vowing to 'always choose' Nicola in a statement Insta caption. The latest development suggested that Brooklyn and Nicola have opted to cut themselves off from not only his family but some celebrity pals too, as insiders claim he now has 'no contact' with various big names. As per The Sun, Brooklyn has distanced himself from Madonna and Guy Ritchie's son Rocco Ritchie, as well as Gordon Ramsay's children Jack and Holly Ramsay. His and Nicola's 'throuple' with Selena Gomez has also ended, friends allege. A source told the publication: 'Rocco, Selena, the Ramsay kids—none of them have even liked the wedding pics after Nicola posted, let alone commented to congratulate them. 'Things have gone very cold with his old friends—it's like the marriage to Nicola meant he started a whole new life with new people around him.' But Brooklyn doesn't seem fazed by his shrinking circle, having made it perfectly clear numerous times who his main focus is. Chatting to People after his and Nicola's vow renewal, he called it a 'beautiful' day. 'We just wanted a really beautiful experience—a really cute memory.' Professing his adoration for his other half, he confessed that he could 'renew [his] vows every single day with her'. More Trending 'I think the most important thing that someone can do is find that person that they're going to spend the rest of their life with. 'It definitely shapes you as a person. Yeah, it was really, really cute. It was really fun.' The heavily inked star joked that he's going to have to 'find space' to get his renewed vows tattooed somewhere on his body, like he did the first set in one of many designs dedicated to his wife. 'These ones were actually longer than my original ones.' Got a story?

'Binge-worthy' romantic drama tops Amazon Prime charts worldwide as fans 'can't get enough'
The Amazon Prime show has recently released its third season after winning an award for the 'Favourite Binge-worthy Show' in 2024. Amazon Prime Video users can not get enough of one coming of age romance drama which has taken the streaming platform by storm after its weekly episode release has seen it top Amazon Charts worldwide. Based on Jenny Han's popular book series, The Summer I Turned Pretty, which returned for its third season last month, is described as a story 'about first love, first heartbreak and the magic of that one perfect summer'. However, fans are being forced to patiently wait each Wednesday for a new episode with the sixth episode of series three being the latest to drop on Prime. Now more than halfway through the latest season which consists of 11 episodes, viewers are waiting in anticipation for the series finale which is set to air on September 17. Starring Lola Tung as Belly Conklin, Christopher Briney as Conrad Fisher and Gavin Casalegno as Jeremiah, the show is about a love triangle between one girl and two brothers. The story unfolds at Cousins Beach where Belly and her mum have been going to vacation with family friend Susannah and her two sons, Jeremiah and Conrad for many summers. Isabel (Belly), has a long-standing crush on Conrad but the summer she turns sixteen, she finds herself going through a lot of changes, both physical and mental, and lands herself in a love triangle with the two handsome brothers. The show first premiered in 2022 with season 2 coming out in 2023 so fans have been waiting a good few years for the third season to be released. And it appears that viewers can not get enough of the new episodes. Taking to X to share their opinions on the show, one user dramatically confessed: "I think about The Summer I Turned Pretty way more religiously than I think about eating." Another echoed: "Obsessed with The Summer I Turned Pretty." A third gushed: "Ugh The Summer I Turned Pretty is such a cute show!!!!" Someone else added: "I'm caught up on The Summer I Turned Pretty. Hello??? I need the next episode NOW." The drama has divided the internet with many making comments about whether they are Team Conrad or Team Jeremiah. One person wrote: "I'm Team Jeremiah forever !!" While another disagreed: "On season 3 of The Summer I Turned Pretty and I was NEVER team Jeremiah. Screw that man, team Conrad forever!!" Someone else added:" I've always been Team Jeremiah but ever since season 3 started it feels so wrong i think i was missing something the whole time." Meanwhile, another user slammed them both as she said: "Team Jeremiah or Conrad? duh, I'm team Belly's getting a therapist." Despite the online raving about the show, it does only score a 73% score on Rotten Tomatoes. However, the drama did win a People's Choice Award for the public's 'Favourite Binge-worthy Show' in 2024. The show is expected to be coming to an end when the final episode of season three airs in September with there only being three books in the novel series.
