Lunar eclipses often follow solar eclipses, despite the "ring of fire" solar eclipse on October 14 not being visible in India.
The eclipse will be visible in various parts of the world, including Asia, Russia, Africa, the Americas, Europe, Antarctica, and Oceania.
The partial lunar eclipse on October 29, 2023, will be visible in India.
A partial lunar eclipse happens when the Earth moves between the Sun and the Moon, but they do not form a straight line in space.
The eclipse will start on October 29, 2023, at 01:05 AM and end at 02:24 AM. Sutak will be observed from 02:50 PM to 02:24 AM.
The eclipse will be visible from various parts of the world, including India, Afghanistan, China, Iran, Turkey, and more.
Unlike solar eclipses, lunar eclipses can be safely viewed with the naked eye, without any special equipment.
The next lunar eclipse after this will occur on March 25, 2024, and it will be a penumbral lunar eclipse.
