KARACHI: The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has said that the first total lunar eclipse of the year is set to grace skies across the world tomorrow (Friday).
According to the PMD, the eclipse will commence at 8:57am Pakistan Standard Time (PST), with the moon entering total eclipse at 11:26am. The lunar eclipse will reach its peak at 11:59am before gradually ending at 3pm.
However, this celestial event will not be visible from Pakistan.
This phenomenon will be observable across various regions, including Europe, several Asian countries, Australia, Africa, and both North and South America.
This week's total lunar eclipse will feature this year's third full moon which is known as the 'Worm Moon'.
According to the BBC, many full moons have nicknames that reflect significant moments in nature.
Similarly, the Worm Moon in March signals the arrival of warmer weather, as earthworms emerge from the ground, breathing life back into the landscape after a long winter.
Additionally, during a total lunar eclipse, the moon can take on a striking red hue, leading some to call it a 'blood moon'
