Tonight, the universe is putting on a show—and you’re invited. A stunning Total Lunar Eclipse will grace the skies this evening, and it’s one of the most spectacular astronomical events of the year. As the Earth’s shadow slowly cloaks the Moon, turning it a deep, rusty red, millions of stargazers across the globe will be watching in awe. And yes—Maik’s Astro Garden is going LIVE to bring it all to you!
🌍 Where Can You See It?
This eclipse is visible across Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia, with full totality lasting over an hour in many regions. Here’s a quick breakdown:
Europe: Perfectly timed for late-night viewing. Most of the continent will see the full eclipse from start to finish.
Asia: Eastern regions will catch the eclipse as the Moon rises; western areas will see it during moonset.
Africa: Nearly all of Africa will enjoy the full eclipse in prime evening hours.
Australia: Early risers will be rewarded with a dramatic lunar show just before dawn.
If you’re in the Americas, you might catch the penumbral or partial phases—but totality won’t be visible there this time.
🔭 How to Watch It
Watching a lunar eclipse is easy—and magical. Here’s how to get the best view:
No telescope required: The eclipse is visible with the naked eye.
Find a dark spot: Get away from city lights if you can.
Check your local time: In the Netherlands, totality begins around 22:12 CEST and peaks at 22:47.
Bring a blanket and snacks: Make it a cosmic picnic!
And if clouds get in the way—don’t worry. I’ve got you covered.
