ROME – Great expectations for the lunar eclipse. It will be a partial eclipse but to make particular the fact that the event will be happening in a night, that between 25 and 26 April, bright full moon and you will see the lunar limb, as bitten by night, will be dark soon as it enters in the shadow that the Earth casts in space. Visible from all over Europe, including Italy, the eclipse as the moon’s surface darkened, it will be similar to that part of the 31 December 2009.
eclipse occurs when the Moon enters the cone of shadow cast by the Earth in space, in this case the eclipse is partial because the disk of the Moon does not fit entirely, but only partially, in the shadow of the Earth. The Moon will enter the Earth’s shadow cone already at 20 , 03 but at that moment the darkening of the lunar limb will be imperceptible, will be more pronounced when the moon is in the shadow of the Earth to 21.54, the culmination of the phenomenon will be at 22.07, then the Moon will be released before of the shadow (at 22:21) and then
from the cone of penumbra at midnight and eleven minutes.
“Just because the eclipse will be partial – emphasizes between the events reported by ‘ Italian Amateur Astronomers Union (UAI), as explained by President Mario Di Sora – and obscured the surface will be minimal, for those who want to observe the astronomical event is even more important this time the advice to travel to distant places from light pollution, otherwise the ‘darkening effect will be difficult to perceive. “
