Lunar Eclipse 2025: When and Where to Watch
When we were students, we read what a lunar eclipse is. Do you remember what a total lunar eclipse is? How it happens? A total lunar eclipse happens when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking sunlight from reaching the Moon. Instead of direct sunlight, the shadow of Earth covers the Moon giving it a red glow. This is why it is often called a “Blood Moon.”
When Was the Last Total Lunar Eclipse?
The last total lunar eclipse was on November 8, 2022. It was special because it was the first total lunar eclipse on a U.S. Election Day in history. Not only the Americans but people from the corners of the world from the continents of Asia, Australia, and the Pacific also saw it.
