Astronomy lovers in This month, America will be treated for a great program. Early in the morning of March 14, a total lunar eclipse will be perceptible. During this phenomenon, the moon will not disappear from the view, but it seems deeply red, as if it was covered with blood.
During the lunar eclipse, the Earth blocks lithe from the sun, which normally illuminates the moon. On the night of March 13 and early in the morning 14, the darkest part of the shadow of the earth, called Umbra, will cover the moon in the lightest phase. Partial lunar eclipses are relatively common – but those that coincide with the full moon are relative occasional. On average, each region of land has a chance to see a total lunar eclipse only once every 2.5 years.
The second total moon eclipse will take place this year on September 7 and will be visible in the eastern parts of Africa, in a immense part of Asia and Western half of Australia.

The moon seems red during the lunar eclipse due to As the sunlight works With the earthly atmosphere. The perceptible sunlight seems white, but in fact it consists of a combination of lights of different colors and frequencies, which can be defined or distracted depending on How much atmosphere They have to travel. For this reason The sky appears blue When the sun is high in the sky, but it is often red at sunset, when the sun is low and its lithe travels longer through the atmosphere.
When sunlight hits the atmosphere of the earth during the lunar eclipse, the frequency of lithe towards the blue end of the perceptible spectrum is dispersed outside, away from the Earth’s umbra, but people with longer wavelengths, towards the red part of the spectrum, are bent and thrown to the moon.
What time will the moon eclipse take place?
According to Nasa, the eclipse will start at 20:57 time of the Pacific. In Mexico, the phenomenon will start at 22:57 CDT, in Argentina at 12:57 (art) and in Spain at 5:57 (CET). The progress of the shadow of the earth on the moon will be ponderous. Observers will notice that the satellite gradually lose lighting in leading to complete eclipse before they turn red. It is expected that the whole eclipse or the time when Moon appears will occur at 23:26 PDT. The climax will last about an hour.
