Eager to witness a rare Strawberry Moon - the last full Moon of Spring 2025 which won't appear this low in the sky again until 2043? Your wait ends tonight as it has been confirmed that the celestial treat will be visible in the UAE.

"The Strawberry Moon will be visible in the UAE, with moonrise at approximately 7.32pm on June 11 and moonset at 5.55am on June 12," Khadijah Hasan Ahmad, operations manager at the Dubai Astronomy Group (DAG), told Gulf News yesterday. "The best part is that you don't need any special equipment to see it."
