US EditionSeptember's 'Corn Moon' Rises This Week
The Blood Moon occurs as Earth’s shadow colors the moon red when sun, Earth, and moon align; the eclipse lasts 1 hour 22 minutes on Sunday, experts explain.
- On Sunday, September 7, 2025, stargazers across Asia, Europe and Africa will see a total lunar eclipse called a 'Blood Moon', especially visible in Asia including India and China.
- Because Earth's atmosphere scatters blue light and bends red wavelengths, a total lunar eclipse happens when Earth moves between the Sun and Moon, casting the Moon into Earth's umbra; Ryan Milligan said `That's what gives the moon its red, bloody colour.`
- From 1730GMT to 1852GMT, the eclipse's total phase unfolds, with totality lasting 1 hour and 22 minutes from 8:30pm to 9:52pm EAT, visible to over seven billion people.
- No special glasses are required to view the lunar eclipse, the Pakistan Meteorological Department says it will be visible across Pakistan between September 7 and 8, but cloudy conditions could obstruct viewing for gathered crowds.
- Milligan called Sunday's eclipse a prelude to next year, with NASA noting a March 3, 2026 total lunar eclipse and a Feb. 17, 2026 annular solar eclipse blocking 96% of the Sun's disk.
