A piece of good news for the stargazers as the world will witness a total Lunar Eclipse or the Super Blood Wolf Moon on the night of 20th and 21st January. Today, the moon will appear reddish and also closer to the Earth and it can be seen today for three and a half hours.
However, this phenomena can be seen at 7:34 pm Pacific Standard Time on 20th January.
The Lunar Eclipse will be visible around the world including North America, Central America, South America, Sweden, Portugal, France, Britain and Spain among others. While in India and other Asian countries, the Chandra Grahan can’t be seen.
