Stargazers enjoying the splendor of August's "Sturgeon Moon" — which is also a blue supermoon — on Aug. 20 may have noticed something peculiar: a planet disappearing from the sky.
In the wee hours of the morning, the moon occulted — or completely passed in front of — the bright planet Saturn, appearing to snuff the ringed world's light for more than an hour. The rare lunar occultation of Saturn was visible only from parts of South America, Europe and Africa. But if you missed it, don't worry — astrophotographer Josh Dury managed to capture the entire event from his perch in Somerset, England.
