Lunar eclipse 2025: A stunning celestial event will take place on Friday, March 14, when the first total lunar eclipse of 2025 will occur. This phenomenon, commonly known as a ‘Chandra Grahan’ in Hindi, will cause the Moon to appear red, earning it the name ‘Blood Moon.’
What is a Total Lunar Eclipse?
A total lunar eclipse happens when the Earth comes directly between the Sun and the Moon. During this alignment, the Earth’s shadow falls on the Moon, making it appear dim or reddish in color.
The second lunar eclipse of 2025 will occur on September 7-8 and is expected to be visible in India.
How to Watch the Lunar Eclipse Safely
Unlike solar eclipses, which require protective glasses to view safely, a total lunar eclipse is entirely safe to observe with the naked eye. There are no risks to your vision when watching a lunar eclipse, making it an accessible and awe-inspiring event to witness.
