How to see the penumbral lunar eclipse
As additional information, it should be noted that the penumbral lunar eclipse is difficult to observe without the help of a camera.
“It will be quite difficult for humans to watch this eclipse without the help of a camera as it will only be eclipsed by the full moon.”
“So this eclipse is not like a partial or total eclipse that makes the moon appear reddish,” he explained.
To witness this penumbral lunar eclipse, people can check local weather conditions tonight and spend some time observing the sky.
For people who want to preserve this phenomenon, digital cameras make documentation easier.
In addition to the phenomenon of the penumbral lunar eclipse, if they are lucky at the same time, people can also observe the Eta Aquariid meteor shower.
The Eta Aquariid meteor shower occurs frequently between April 19 and May 28.
“The Eta Aquariid meteor shower typically occurs when Earth enters a stream of meteoroids/dust left over from Comet Halley that passed decades ago.”
“Although they occur together, these two phenomena are unrelated,” Rhorom said.
