Monday 20 December 2010

An auspicious time

Total Lunar Eclipse on the Winter Solstice 6.32am - 8.53 UK time. (Total Eclipse at 7.40am)

The Moon will be very low in the west-north-western sky, close to the horizon and in a rapidly brightening sky.

From locations in Scotland and Northern Ireland, totality will be visible in its entirety, but the Moon will be low down after the time of greatest eclipse.
