On the first official day of Summer, Venus, Mars and the Moon will form a triangle in the night sky, according to NASA ambassador, Tony Rice.
Viewers across the globe should be able to look at the trio without special equipment because they will be shinning so brightly.
This year, the bright long-tailed balls will be active starting July 14 and ending September 1.
The show, which is known for its "stronger meteor showers", will be unobscured by the moon this year, as the moon will be illuminating at 10 percent capacity.
Opposition technically occurs at a single moment in time, but if you look at the planet weeks before it hits opposition and weeks after, it will still be much brighter than usual.
Saturn will be visible to the naked eye, but a telescope may be necessary to get a close-up of the planets famous dangling rings.
But it will not be just any blue moon. This blue moon will be considered a Super Blue Moon because the moon will appear to be larger and brighter.
The event is not a once-in-a-"blue moon" phenomenon, since they happen relatively regularly. The last time a Super Blue Moon occurred was on January 31, 2018.
Nearly all of North America will be able to see a partial solar eclipse, but the fiery show is reserved for only certain parts of the country. Residents from Oregon through Texas, across the Caribbean, and through Central America and out across Brazil, will be in the best position to watch the moon be seemingly engulfed by flames. The route of the annular solar eclipse foreshadows the path that the total solar eclipse will take in April 2024.
