This Friday’s lunar eclipse will result in the emergence of a Blood Moon, and it’s expected to remain visible in the sky for an extended amount of time.
According to Accuweather, the occurrence of this particular Blood Moon is notable in part because it’s the longest one of this century.
The total phase of the lunar eclipse is expected to last for approximately one hour and 43 minutes. The entire event could last for up to six hours after taking into account the partial phases of the eclipse.
For many people, this lunar eclipse could be the longest one they will ever witness, as a similar event that will last for a comparable amount of time is not expected to take place until June 9, 2123.
People in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, South America and even Antarctica will have an opportunity to see the Blood Moon.
Residents of eastern Asia, Australia and New Zealand will actually be able to see the Blood Moon on the morning of July 28, but people in South America and western Europe should see the crimson-colored satellite as early as Friday night.
People in Africa and Antarctica will have the chance to see the full lunar eclipse unfold in the sky.
