On August 28 at 5:52 pm Singapore / Hong Kong time (09:52:22 UT), a total lunar eclipse will occur when the Sun, Earth and Moon align.This is a rare occurrence as the Moon usually passes above
or below the imaginary line connecting Earth and the Sun.
During the eclipse, also known as the Blood Moon eclipse, the full Moon will take on a dark red colour as it will be illuminated slightly by sunlight passing through the Earth’s atmosphere. The moon will be in its deepest red for about 30-45 minutes.
This is the first central total eclipse since 2000.
Note: Thank you Stephen who make the effort to email me the document for me to place on my blog. Thank you very much.
