Total Lunar Eclipse to Grace the Skies on September 7, 2025

Mark your calendars for an astronomical spectacle! On September 7, 2025, a total lunar eclipse will occur, a celestial event that promises to captivate sky-gazers worldwide.

Known as the "Blood Moon" phenomenon, this eclipse will see the Earth's shadow completely covering the full moon, giving it a distinctive blood-red colour. The astronomical event begins at 17:28, with the Sun, Earth, and Moon aligning exactly in a row during the eclipse.

However, for our German viewers, the spectacle begins later due to moonrise times varying by location. The initial stages of the eclipse will not be visible in Germany, as the next total lunar eclipse visible from the country will only occur on December 31, 2028.

The event starts with the Earth's penumbra reaching the moon, causing a barely noticeable gray veil. As the eclipse progresses, the moon will gradually move further into the Earth's umbra, the darker part of the shadow, transforming into the glowing red "Blood Moon" on the horizon.

This total lunar eclipse is a rare event, and the ones occurring between 2025 and 2028 are not visible from Germany due to their geographic and timing conditions. After the total lunar eclipse on September 7, 2025, there is a wait until the 2028 event for a visible total eclipse in Germany.

So, grab your telescopes and head out to a clear spot on the night of September 7, 2025, to witness this celestial wonder. It's an event not to be missed!
