The Met Office said the Penumbral Eclipse will begin at 23:02 PST today and the Penumbral Eclipse ending at 03:26 PST on 29th October.
What is Lunar eclipse?
When the earth is between the sun and the moon, it causes Lunar Eclipses by casting a shadow on the moon’s surface. They are an interesting sight to watch because they can only occur during a full moon.
The partial eclipse ends when the moon moves out of the umbra, passing back into the penumbra, and a second penumbral eclipse stage occurs at 2052 GMT (4:52 p.m. EDT) on Oct. 28 [Today].
If you miss this partial eclipse, the moon will once again pass into the shadow of Earth on Sept. 17, 2024.
