CNN — Look up this week for February’s full snow moon and to catch the last glimpse of a visible parade of planets in the night sky before they fade from view. The Comanche people know it as the sleet moon, the Lakota tribe’s name for the full moon translates to “when trees crack because of cold,” and the Wishram people’s designation means “shoulder to shoulder around the fire moon.” Meanwhile, four planets are visible to the naked eye at the same time after sunset through mid-February, according to NASA.

When the moon is within the darkest part of Earth’s shadow, called the umbra, it takes on a reddish hue, which has led to the nickname “blood moon” for a lunar eclipse, according to NASA.
