Spectacular sky: today there's a total lunar eclipse.
Today, shortly after sunset, the full moon will begin to be enveloped by the Earth's shadow cast by the sun.
247 - A phenomenon visible throughout Brazil will begin to occur today shortly after sunset: a total lunar eclipse. This will happen because the Sun, Earth, and Moon will be forming a single axis, a result of the coincidental alignment of their rotational movements. It will be even more interesting because tonight there will be a full moon, and thus, Earth's natural satellite will be seen being enveloped by the shadow of our planet, projected by the Sun, as soon as it appears in the sky. To observe the phenomenon from the beginning, notice where the Sun will set. At the opposite extreme, the Moon will be rising, already beginning to be covered by the shadow. For those who pay attention to the signs, the phenomenon will affect the axis formed by Gemini and Sagittarius.
