New Delhi [India], November 8 (ANI): Today is the day when the world will witness the last total <keyword id="90051" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="lunar-eclipse" source="Orion">lunar eclipse</keyword> of this year. At full moon, when the moon is close to a node, total lunar eclipses take place because the earth blocks the sun's rays from reaching the moon. Almost a year after the last total lunar eclipse, the sight of the moon sliding into the shadows of the Earth returns and graces the sky. Viewers in North America, Central America, most of South America, the Pacific Ocean, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia will see the Moon darken and acquire a reddish in the wee hours of Tuesday, November 8. When and how to watch lunar eclipse The Moon traverses the northern half of Earth's shadow, with totality predicted to last 86 minutes. Mid-eclipse happens on November 8th at 10:59 Universal Time (UT), around six days before apogee, when the Moon is farthest from Earth in its orbit. As a result, during the eclipse, the Moon will appear 7 per cent smaller than it does when it's at perigee (closest to Earth), but the difference is imperceptible. The eclipse on Tuesday will be a bit brighter than the one that occurred in May -- especially in the Moon's northern half -- since the Moon doesn't glide as close to the dark center of Earth's shadow. There are several delightful extras viewers can look out for while admiring the eclipse. During totality, Earth's shadow dims the Moon sufficiently for stars to be visible right up to its edge. In addition, Uranus reaches opposition just a day after the eclipse, when it's directly opposite the Earth from the Sun and at its closest and brightest. And on eclipse night the distant planet will be upper left of the red-hued Moon -- binoculars will reveal the planet's pale disk. The farther west you are, the smaller the gap between planet and Moon. Also, the Northern and Southern Taurid meteor showers peak around this time, so eclipse-watchers might be treated to a few meteors streaking across the night sky. All stages of the eclipse occur simultaneously for everyone, but not everyone will see the full eclipse. Weather permitting, observers in western North America will witness the entirety of the event on the morning of November 8, with the partial eclipse phase beginning an hour or so after midnight. In Hawai'i, the totally eclipsed Moon will be directly overhead. Viewers in the central parts of the continent will see all of totality and most of the final partial phases, while those on the East Coast can watch the Sun rise as totality ends. South America will witness the initial phases of the eclipse up to totality, while Central America can enjoy the show a bit longer and see it through the total phase. The eclipse is an early evening event in central and eastern Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, and the Moon rises either during the earlier partial phases or during totality. The actual clock times of the eclipse depend on your time zone. Do's and Don'ts of Lunar Eclipse" Dos Until there is a lunar eclipse, tulsi leaves must be added to food products. Pray for the moon to be released from Rahu's control soon. Before and after the eclipse, take a holy bath to purify your body and spirit. Don'ts During a lunar eclipse, it is typically advised to stay inside and refrain from beginning any new projects or activities. Pregnant women are strictly forbidden from going outside during a lunar eclipse, cutting or sewing any fabric, carrying sharp tools like scissors or blades, or using knives, among other activities that could harm the unborn child. As per belief, people avoid consuming food. Avoid watching the eclipse with your naked eyes The events that happen during a total lunar eclipse are more complex and interesting than many people realize. The Moon's leading edge enters the pale outer fringe of Earth's shadow: the penumbra. You probably won't notice anything until the Moon is about halfway across the penumbra. 1. Watch for a slight darkening on the Moon's left side as seen from North America. The penumbral shading becomes stronger as the Moon moves deeper in. 2. The penumbra is the region where an astronaut standing on the Moon would see Earth covering only part of the Sun's face. 3. The Moon's leading edge enters the umbra, the cone of Earth's shadow within which the Sun's completely hidden. You should notice a dramatic darkening on the leading edge of the lunar disk. With a telescope, you can watch the edge of the umbra slowly engulfing one lunar feature after another, as the entire sky begins to grow darker. 4. The trailing edge of the Moon slips into the umbra for the beginning of total eclipse. But the Moon won't black out completely: It's sure to glow some shade of intense orange or red. 5. Why is this? The Earth's atmosphere scatters and bends (refracts) sunlight that skims its edges, diverting some of it onto the eclipsed Moon. If you were on the Moon during a lunar eclipse, you'd see the Sun hidden by a dark Earth rimmed with the reddish light of all the sunrises and sunsets ringing the world at that moment. 6. The red umbral glow can be quite different from one eclipse to the next. Two main factors affect its brightness and hue. The first is simply how deeply the Moon goes into the umbra as it passes through; the center of the umbra is darker than its edges. The other factor is the state of Earth's atmosphere. If a major volcanic eruption has recently polluted the stratosphere with thin global haze, a lunar eclipse can be dark red, ashen brown, or occasionally almost black. 7. In addition, blue light is refracted through Earth's clear, ozone-rich upper atmosphere above the thicker layers that produce the red sunrise-sunset colors. This ozone-blue light tints the Moon also, especially near the umbra's edge. You'll need binoculars or a telescope to see this effect. 8. As the Moon progresses along its orbit, events replay in reverse order. The Moon's edge re-emerges into the sunlight, ending totality and beginning a partial eclipse again. 9. When all of the Moon escapes the umbra, only the last, penumbral shading is left. Sometime later, nothing unusual remains. The event has five stages, each with different things to watch.(ANI)

There are three types of a lunar eclipse – a total lunar eclipse, partial lunar eclipse, and penumbral lunar eclipse — this one will be a penumbral lunar eclipse. A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align in almost a straight line. The Earth blocks some of the Sun’s light from directly reaching the Moon’s surface and partially covers the Moon with the outer part of its shadow, also known as the penumbra. Where to watch the penumbral lunar eclipse on November 30? Although the penumbral lunar eclipse won’t be visible in India, skywatchers can admire it in various parts of the world, including Asia, Europe, North America, South America, Australia.

However, there are plenty of ways that you can watch the lunar eclipse or <keyword id="4015484" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Chandra-Grahan">Chandra Grahan</keyword> happening live — online. Keep in mind that a penumbral lunar eclipse is generally more subtle that a total lunar eclipse. For ordinary observers, it can be difficult to distinguish from a full moon since it only ‘slightly’ darkens the moon. A partial penumbral lunar eclipse, like the one set to occur on June 5, can be even more difficult to differentiate unless you have a telescope on hand. Here’s how you can get a front-row seat for the upcoming lunar eclipse or Chandra Grehan: The <a href="https://www.virtualtelescope.eu/2020/05/09/5-june-2020-penumbral-lunar-eclipse-online-observation/">Virtual Telescope Project</a> will be live streaming the entire eclipse from Italy as the moon makes its way over Rome’s skyline. Joining the live feed is free. The stream will start on June 5 at 7:00 pm UT (12:30 am IST). (The list will be updated as more observatories post their schedules for the lunar eclipse.) What is a penumbral lunar eclipse? A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth comes between the Moon and the Sun. Since the Sun doesn’t general its own light, when the Earth blocks the light coming in from the Sun, it throws a shadow onto the Moon’s surface. A penumbral lunar eclipse is the weakest of all lunar eclipses. The Moon only moves through the faint, outer part of the Earth’s shadow called the penumbra. It’s often mistaken for a full moon rather than an actual eclipse since the alignment of the Sun, Moon and Earth is far from perfect. During a partial and total lunar eclipse, the Earth’s central shadow — the umbra — falls onto the Moon. During a total lunar eclipse, the Earth is able to completely block out the Sun’s light, pulling the Moon into complete darkness. However, during a partial lunar eclipse, the alignment of the three celestial bodies is still imperfect. The Earth’s shadow is only able to block some of the Sun’s light, so only a small part of the Moon is darkened. However, if you happen to have a telescope on hand — you’ll notice the Moon slightly darken during the time. The Strawberry Moon penumbral lunar eclipse is the first one of the year. The second is set to occur on July 5 —- the third in the season of eclipses this year — during the Buck Moon. The third penumbral lunar eclipse will occur a few months later, in November, during the Beaver Full Moon. In order of a penumbral lunar eclipse to occur there are two underlying conditions. One, that the Moon must be in the ‘Full Moon’ phase. And second, the Earth, Sun and Moon should be ‘nearly aligned’ but not as closely aligned as during a partial lunar eclipse.

The last <keyword id="90051" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="lunar-eclipse">lunar eclipse</keyword> for 2020 will take place on November 30, 2020. This eclipse will be a penumbral one, meaning it will be a partial eclipse in which only a portion of the moon will be shadowed. Moreover, this eclipse can be seen from countries including North and South America, Australia, and parts of Asia. In India, most states will not be able to see the lunar eclipse as the moon will be below the horizon. Timing and duration of the eclipse The eclipse that will happen on November 30, 2020 will start at 01:04 PM (IST) and will last until 05:22 PM (IST), as per timeanddate.com. The maximum eclipse will be observed at 03:13 PM (IST). The total duration of the eclipse will be 04 hours 18 minutes and 11 seconds. Description of the penumbral eclipse on November 30 Astronomers call the kind of eclipse that will happen on November 30, a penumbral lunar eclipse. During a penumbral lunar eclipse, the moon will only be partially darkened by the earth’s shadow. On November 30, 2020, 83% of the moon’s disc will be shadowed partially by the shadow of the earth. This will result in a gentle gradient of the shadow across the moon’s disc at the maximum spot. Grand finale of the lunar eclipse series in 2020 There are a total of four lunar eclipses in 2020. The first one occurred on January 10. The second lunar eclipse took place on June 5, and the third eclipse on July 5. The fourth lunar eclipse will take place today (November 30), and will be the grand finale of the eclipse series for the year 2020. Eclipses are very interesting astronomical phenomena and generate wonder and curiosity in people. Moon is closely associated with our life, science, culture, literature and arts and hence the lunar eclipse always triggers the interests of people, especially sky watchers.

Science can now explain why a <keyword id="4015484" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Chandra-Grahan" source="Orion">Chandra Grahan</keyword> occurs when the Earth comes in between the Sun and the Moon, that was not always the case. Ancient cultures and societies had their own theories as to when the Moon disappeared from the night sky. According to Hindu scriptures, Ved Vyas, a <keyword id="90051" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="lunar-eclipse" source="Orion">lunar eclipse</keyword> is when the demon god — Rahu — holds the Sun and the Moon by the mouth. And since, he’s a ‘demon’ god, the celestial event emits a lot of negative energy. Some of those stories have turned into superstitions that still persist today. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Here are some of the most popular myths associated with the lunar eclipse, and why they don’t pose a threat:" comment="subhead" text="Here are some of the most popular myths associated with the lunar eclipse, and why they don’t pose a threat:">Here are some of the most popular myths associated with the lunar eclipse, and why they don’t pose a threat:</cmsannotation> You should take a bath after the ‘lunar eclipse’. Some religious entities suggest that not only should you take a bath after a lunar eclipse, but you should just do it with your <a href="http://www.swaminarayan.org/faq/eclips.htm">clothes on</a> — in cold water. In reality, the penumbral lunar eclipse on January 10 will be no different than any other Full Moon. In fact, since only a light shadow will fall on the Moon, it will be difficult for casual onlookers to even notice the difference. In case you haven’t taken a bath in over a week, maybe you should take one anyway — superstition or not. Avoid eating food during this time. If you do, observe fast for three days. Not only is your body under threat from the ‘negative energy’ of a lunar eclipse, but so is your food. Some more modern institutions say that food is exposed to excess UV and <a href="http://artoflivingsblog.com/eclipse-ancient-indian-perspective/">cosmic rays</a>. However, the UV and other light particles breaching the Earth’s atmosphere won’t be any different on the night of the lunar eclipse. Your achaars and your leftovers are safe from the rays of the Moon. Avoid intercourse. Yeah, don’t have sex during the night of the lunar eclipse, says astrologer <a href="https://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-do-not-have-sex-during-the-lunar-eclipse-1555046">Soniyaa Bhagiyaa</a>. “In the Hindu shastras, this event is considered to be an extremely inauspicious one, and consequently, the eclipses or grahans are believed to be a sign of bad omen,” she told DNA. However, science says that if you’re having an off night in bed, it had nothing to do with the Moon. You should not sleep during the duration of the eclipse. So you can’t eat, you can’t have sex — and you’re not allowed to sleep either. Three pretty major activities have been cut out of the equation if you’re superstitious. On the other hand, January 10 is a Friday. Most people won’t necessarily have to wake up early the next day. Avoid sitting on an animal. You should avoid doing that even if it’s not a lunar eclipse. This superstition is the only one that comes the closest to making sense. Can the darkening of the Moon affect animal behaviour? The answer is yes — and no. A <a href="https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0012572">study</a> in 2010 found that Azara’s owl monkeys stopped looking for food during the lunar eclipse. They’re unsure why but believe that it was either because they struggled to see the food or felt too unnerved by the sudden darkness. Only very few animals are affected by the lunar eclipse and they’re unlikely anything you’re going to ‘sit’ on.

As per the Indian standard time (IST), the eclipse will begin from 10:41 a.m. on Monday (21 January) and will last for over an hour (63 minutes). However, including the partial lunar eclipse, it will last for nearly <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-lunar-eclipse/super-blood-wolf-moon-to-get-star-billing-in-weekend-lunar-eclipse-idUSKCN1PC12J">3.5 hours</a>. What's so special about it? The eclipse is a rare kind as it will be a blend of three lunar phenomena together — the full moon, the total lunar eclipse and coincides with the traditional January full moon. Total lunar eclipse — no, the sky won't go completely dark -- will rather show up a rusty red glow, called the 'blood moon.’ In fact, it's a 'supermoon’ — a full moon particularly close to earth. This is due to the dust particles and clouds covering the sky, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-lunar-eclipse/super-blood-wolf-moon-to-get-star-billing-in-weekend-lunar-eclipse-idUSKCN1PC12J">according to</a> National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Unlike solar eclipse, there's no precautionary measures to be taken while viewing the eclipse, and can be viewed with a naked eye.

"Badrinath Dham Temple closed for the lunar eclipse. The temple will re-open at 6:25 pm after the eclipse", Ajendra Ajay, Chairman of the Shri Badrinath-Kedarnath Temple Committee told ANI. Due to the Lunar Eclipse, temples across India have been closed since morning and would remain closed till 6:30 pm in the evening. Temples have announced that after performing the <keyword id="6290100" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="sandhya-aarti" source="Orion">Sandhya Aarti</keyword> and other rituals for purification, the temples would be opened to the public. A Lunar eclipse happens when the Sun, Earth, and a Full Moon form a near-perfect Syzygy in space. The Moon slides into the Earth's shadow and gradually darkens until the entire lunar disc turns into an eerie red or dim orange from its usual silvery grey shade. The event unfolds in reverse order further, until the moon returns to its full brilliance. The <keyword id="15461656" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="november-8th-lunar-eclipse" source="Orion">November 8th lunar eclipse</keyword> is the last lunar eclipse of the year and the second total lunar eclipse in the year 2022, the earlier was on May 15-16th.

The next Lunar eclipse is predicted to be on the 5th of May, 2023. Every year, from anywhere between four to seven times, the Sun, Moon, and Earth line up in a Syzygy, forming what is called either the Solar or Lunar Eclipse. (ANI)
