A total lunar eclipse will occur across multiple time zones today. During this event, the Moon will move from right to left, passing through Earth's shadow. In India, this rare celestial event will take place at 3:20 pm and will end at 6:47 pm.
According to the India Meteorological Department, a total lunar eclipse occurs when the entire Moon comes under the umbral shadow of the Earth, while a partial lunar eclipse occurs only when a portion of the Moon comes under the shadow of the Earth.
This will be a major event of the year, and skywatchers and astronomers are extremely excited about it. The last celestial phenomenon that occurred was a solar eclipse, but it was not visible from India.
