The beginning of the eclipse in Afghanistan

Tonight, an amazing astronomical event, a lunar eclipse, can be seen all over the world, including Afghanistan.

The semi-shadow eclipse began at 7:58 pm Afghan time today and will peaks at 10:41. This phenomenon will continue until 1:25 am.

A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is located exactly between the sun and the moon.

In this case, the moon turns dark red when it passes the Earth’s shadow; a phenomenon called a “blood moon”.

The US Space Organization (NASA) has announced that about six billion people in different parts of the world will be able to watch this total eclipse.
