Weekend's 'blood Moon' total lunar eclipse to be a stunning spectacle over India
Get ready, India! A spectacular celestial event is set to light up our skies next year. On the nights of 7-8 September 2025, a total lunar eclipse, also known as a 'blood Moon', will be visible across the entire Indian subcontinent.
This cosmic spectacle will begin in India Standard Time on late Sunday night, 7 September, and continue through to the early hours of Monday morning, 8 September. The Moon will be high in the sky and in the south, making it easy to spot even from built-up cities.
As the lunar eclipse progresses, Earth's shadow will creep across the surface of the Moon. Initially, it will take a 'bite' out of the Moon, growing larger and larger as the eclipse unfolds. The Moon will then turn a dark, rusty red colour as sunlight passes through Earth's atmosphere, refracting before hitting the Moon.
A lunar eclipse is a unique opportunity to observe the clockwork motion of the Solar System in action, and no special equipment is needed to see it; it's safe to see with the naked eye. If you capture a photo of the lunar eclipse, consider sharing it by emailing contactus@our website.
Observers in India will be able to see the full lunar eclipse from start to finish. In fact, the location where the total eclipse on September 7, 2025, is fully visible from beginning to end on Earth includes regions where the total lunar eclipse can be observed completely, such as Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, West-North America, East-South America, the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian Ocean, Arctic, and Antarctic regions.
Getting away from built-up areas and light pollution can improve one's view of the lunar eclipse. So, if you can, find a quiet spot with a clear view of the sky and enjoy this celestial show. This weekend, from 7-8 September 2025, India will be treated to a stunning display of nature's beauty. Don't miss it!
