On October 28 and 29, there will be a partial lunar eclipse, according to a news statement from the India Meteorological Department (IMD). The IMD news statement states that even though the Moon will enter penumbra at midnight on October 28, the umbral phase will begin early on October 29. Around midnight, the eclipse would be visible from every location in India. The Western Pacific Ocean, Australia, Asia, Europe, Africa, eastern South America, northeastern North America, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the South Pacific Ocean will all be covered by the eclipse.
On October 29, at 01:05 IST, the eclipse’s umbral phase will start and terminate at 02:24 IST. With a very tiny magnitude of 0.126, the eclipse will last for one hour and nineteen minutes. The following lunar eclipse, a complete lunar eclipse, will be observed from India on September 7, 2025. The last total lunar eclipse that could be seen from India occurred on November 8, 2022.
When all three objects are in alignment and the earth passes between the Sun and the Moon on a full moon day, a lunar eclipse takes place. A partial lunar eclipse only happens when a portion of the moon is cast in the shadow of the Earth, whereas a total lunar eclipse happens when the moon is completely covered by the Earth’s umbral shadow.
