Total Lunar Eclipse to Occur on September 7, 2025
A total lunar eclipse, known as a 'blood moon,' will take place on September 7, 2025, visible across Asia, Australia, Africa, and parts of Europe.
A total lunar eclipse is set to occur on September 7, 2025, offering a 'blood moon' spectacle to skywatchers across Asia, Australia, Africa, and parts of Europe. The eclipse will begin at 15:28 UTC, with totality lasting from 17:30 to 18:52 UTC, providing an 82-minute display of the moon immersed in Earth's shadow.
In Europe, the moon will rise already in partial eclipse. For instance, in Berlin, moonrise is at 19:37 CEST, with totality from 19:30 to 20:52 CEST. Observers are advised to find locations with an unobstructed eastern horizon to fully appreciate the event.
Unfortunately, the Americas will not witness this eclipse, as it occurs during daylight hours in these regions.
This event is part of an eclipse season, with a partial solar eclipse expected two weeks later on September 21, 2025.
For those unable to view the eclipse directly, live streams will be available online, allowing global audiences to experience the phenomenon in real-time.
