    Total Lunar Eclipse Blood Moon: How to Watch the Rare Event This Weekend

    A rare total lunar eclipse blood moon will appear in the sky this Sunday. Viewers in the UK will get a chance to see it as the moon rises already in full eclipse. This event has not been seen in the UK since 2022 and will not return until August 2026.

    The eclipse happens when the sun, Earth, and moon align in a straight line. As the moon passes through the Earth’s shadow, it takes on a deep red glow. According to the Royal Observatory, the best viewing time for the UK is at 7.33pm on Sunday when the moon rises in full eclipse.

    When and Where to See the Blood Moon

    The lunar eclipse will last until 9.55pm in the UK. This gives about two hours and 22 minutes to enjoy the sight. People in eastern Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and western Australia will see the full event from start to finish. UK observers will catch it midway as the moon climbs above the horizon.

    The colour of the blood moon is caused by Earth’s atmosphere. Short blue light waves are scattered, while red light bends through and hits the moon. This is why the moon glows red during the eclipse. NASA says dust or clouds in the air can make the colour even darker and richer. The same effect makes sunsets and sunrises appear red.

    Best Viewing Tips for Stargazers

    Unlike a solar eclipse, no special glasses are needed to watch a blood moon. It is safe to view with the naked eye. However, using a telescope can reveal surface details on the moon. Tripods or remote shutter tools can help capture sharp photographs.

    Astronomer Tom Kerss advises knowing your horizon. The moon will appear low in the southwest when rising. In cities, people should move to higher ground or open spaces for a clear view. The lower the moon sits, the more dramatic the effect looks.

    The UK Met Office says many regions may see clouds on Sunday evening. But eastern and northeastern areas could clear in time for the event. Parts of the southwest and eastern England may have the best chance of clear skies. As forecasts can change, checking the latest update closer to Sunday is advised.

    The total lunar eclipse blood moon is a rare sight. This weekend gives sky watchers a chance to see one of nature’s most striking shows.

    FYI (keeping you in the loop)-

    Q1: What time is the total lunar eclipse blood moon visible in the UK?

    The eclipse begins as the moon rises at 7.33pm and lasts until 9.55pm. The moon will already be in full eclipse as it appears.

    Q2: Why does the moon turn red during an eclipse?

    Red light bends through Earth’s atmosphere while blue light scatters. This makes the moon appear red when in Earth’s shadow.

    Q3: Can I see the full lunar eclipse from the UK?

    No. UK viewers will see it partway through. People in Africa, Asia, and Australia can see the full event.

    Q4: Do I need special glasses to see the blood moon?

    No. It is safe to watch with the naked eye. A telescope or camera tripod can make the view better.

    Q5: What if the weather is cloudy on Sunday?

    The Met Office says some areas may have clear skies, especially in the east and southwest. Always check forecasts on the day.
