The total lunar eclipse will be visible to the naked eye at sunset domingo. Ilargia will take a reddish color , which is why it takes that name. However, it poses no risk, and no optical devices or filters are needed to be seen.
The lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun line up. The Earth's shadow covers the Moon, and the satellite becomes reddish. At first it will be hard to see, because it has little brightness, but as it rises it will be brighter, and as the A0sky gets darker it will allow you to see light.
Its proximity to the horizon will give it a great appearance , which will make it "particularly attractive to observers." To see it well, it will be essential to look for clear visual fields to the east.
The maximum eclipse will be 20:11,the partial eclipse will begin at 18:27 and end at 21:56, while the total eclipse will be visible from 19:31 to 20:53.
From this last hour, the Moon will begin to emerge from the Earth's shadow, rapidly losing its reddish color and becoming brighter, until it takes the form of the usual full Moon.
This phenomenon occurs when the Earth, the Full Moon, and the Sun are aligned, and when the Moon crosses it in the shadow projected by the Earth.
