A total lunar eclipse will be visible this Sunday. Here are some places holding viewings for the occasion:
A total lunar eclipse will be visible across a majority of the world Sunday night, meaning stargazers in the Washington area will be able to witness a blood moon grace the sky.
A total lunar eclipse is when the moon lines up between the sun and Earth, passing entirely into Earth’s shadow. It results in the moon appearing red, hence the “blood moon” moniker. “The shadowed moon gets illuminated by scattered sunlight coming through the Earth’s atmosphere and that light is primarily red,” says Alan Goldberg, retired scientist and vice president of the Northern Virginia Astronomy Club., a partial eclipse will begin at 10:27 PM with the moon entering Earth’s partial shadow .
Goldberg says the most interesting part of the eclipse is the partial shadow phase “because you actually see the motion of the moon into the earth’s shadow.” He adds that other astronomical objects, like stars and the Milky Way, will be more prominent in the sky during the eclipse.
