This weekend, the earth will move between the moon and the sun, causing the last total lunar eclipse of the year on December 10 (Saturday).
From Asia to Australia, the moon will noticeably darken and flare different colours as the earth blocks the sun rays, refracting light through its own atmosphere.
Partial lunar eclipses are reasonably common, but total ones are rare ,said the website of Australian Geographic. The eclipse would be seen in most parts of world unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be seen from a small part of the world at a time.
”Unlike a solar eclipse, you don’t need any protective equipment or even a telescope. You can see through naked eye”, says Dr Tanya Hill, Astronomer for the Melbourne Planetarium at Scienceworks.
It will be almost of an hour when the earth is completely eclipsing the moon while the whole process will take about three and half hours.
While it is difficult to forecast, astronomers are predicting a blue pinch to the moons’ changing colour as the earth crosses the alignment. The shadow will be very dark, it could be of red colour, and could also have a bluish turquoise hue to it too. But it all depends on the earth’s atmosphere, said Dr Tanya.
The next total moon eclipse would be in April 2014.
