Total Lunar Eclipse - 3rd March 2007
A total lunar eclipse takes place on 3rd March 2007. All six hours and five minutes of the event, from its first to its last penumbral stage, will be visible in its entirety from all parts of the UK, Europe and Africa. The Moon will appear to rise already eclipsed from all parts of the Americas, with the exception of Alaska, while the Moon will set during the eclipse from most of Asia, India, the far east and western parts of Australia.
The Moon clips through the northern part of the Earth's shadow, giving an umbral magnitude of 1.233 and a totality lasting an hour and thirteen minutes. At mid-eclipse the Moon will be 42° high in the 'underbelly' of Leo.
You can watch it all (clouds permitting) HERE
