On September 7, a total lunar eclipse will be observed

On September 7, a rare astronomical event — a total lunar eclipse — will be observed in the sky. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

This year's eclipse is recognized as the longest-lasting event in the past three years. At 20:28 Tashkent time, the Moon will enter the Earth's shadow, and the eclipse process will continue until 01:55 on September 8.

For approximately one and a half hours, the sky will be illuminated in a reddish hue resembling a "Blood Moon." This phenomenon occurs because sunlight refracts through the atmosphere and falls on the Moon's surface in a red color.

According to information, the last total lunar eclipse was observed seven years ago, making this event highly significant for astronomy enthusiasts and sky watchers. Using a special map provided by the "Topor" Telegram channel, it is possible to track when and where the lunar eclipse can be clearly seen.

According to the map, Uzbekistan is marked in red, which gives the country's population the opportunity to clearly observe the "Blood Moon" (source: zamin.uz). This astronomical event offers a unique opportunity for those interested in astronomy and helps to study the marvelous mysteries of nature more closely.
