On Friday, 14th March 2025, the UK will witness a penumbral lunar eclipse, where the Moon passes through the Earth’s outer shadow, causing a subtle dimming effect. While not as striking as a total eclipse, it’s still a fascinating sight for stargazers!
🕰️ When to Watch
The eclipse will begin at 04:00 GMT, peak at 06:30 GMT, and end by 09:00 GMT. The best time to observe it is around 06:30 GMT, just before dawn.
👀 How to See It
- Look towards the western horizon before sunrise.
- No special equipment needed – it’s visible to the naked eye!
- For the clearest view, find a dark location away from city lights.
