The full moon on 28 October will have a red tinge for viewers in the UK, Europe, Asia and Africa as part of the moon passes into Earth’s shadow
On the night of Saturday 28 October, people across the UK, Europe, Asia and Africa will be treated to a partial eclipse of the moon. In some parts of North America, South America and Australia, only the earliest phase of the eclipse, called the penumbral stage, will be visible.The maximum of the eclipse will be at 9:14pm in London, 10:14pm in Berlin, 11:14pm in Moscow, 1:44am in Mumbai and 4:14am in Hong Kong.
There are two parts of Earth’s shadow: the darkest inner part is called the umbra and the outer part is the penumbra. A partial lunar eclipse happens when the moon does not fully line up with Earth and the sun, meaning only part of the moon moves into Earth’s shadow.. This is because of Earth’s atmosphere. Although the moon is in Earth’s shadow, light is scattered through Earth’s atmosphere and only the longer wavelengths of sunlight – the red end of the spectrum – make it through by bending, or refracting, around Earth. The moon then reflects this back at us, creating a red or orange glow.
