The full moon actually appeared in Ireland

The total eclipse occurred in Ireland just in time for astronomers to predict.

At 7: 41 minutes on December 21 (local time), ie 14:41 pm on the same day (Vietnam time), from the capital of Ireland, Ireland, the Moon was seen turning red. This phenomenon lasts more than an hour.

Despite the cold weather, many people gathered around a telescope made by the Association of Amateur Astronomers in a parking lot in the capital to observe the Moon and the stars.

A banker said he not only saw the Moon but also Saturn was very close to the telescope.

According to astronomers, North America, Greenland can also witness the total lunar eclipse. Western Europe and West Asia will witness the partial eclipse later.

True Moon is an astronomical phenomenon when the Moon enters the tip of the Earth's shadow, facing the Sun. The total eclipse occurs when the sun's rays before reaching the Moon are projected at the tip of the Earth and refracted by the Earth's atmosphere.

The short-wavelength light rays were blocked, leaving only long-wavelength rays (red, orange) penetrating, so the Moon was red.

Unlike eclipses - astronomical phenomena are forced to use protective glasses to observe - viewers can witness eclipse with the naked eye.

The most recent lunar eclipse occurred on February 21, 2008. The next full moon is expected to happen on June 15 and December 10, 2011.
