Global Visibility
The eclipse will be visible across major regions of the world, making it a widely observable astronomical event. Experts say lunar eclipses occur when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon’s surface.
Unlike solar eclipses, lunar eclipses are safe to watch with the naked eye.
Officials encourage the public to stay updated through official weather and astronomy bulletins for any changes.
