Second Lunar Eclipse 2021 Selenophile, astrophile, uranophile are you ready to witness another space event tomorrow? If last night until sunrise today we had Leonid Meteor Showers, tomorrow November 19, 2021 or late evening of November 18 in some parts of the world, the moon will pass into the Earth's shadow. The eclipse will begin at 2:03 pm and will end at 5:47 p.m. Philippine time and will be visible in Europe, Eastern Asia, North and South America, and Eastern Australia. It can be called "almost total" lunar eclipse because the moon's disk will be within the darkest part of the Earth's shadow or umbra. According to NASA, it will last for 3 hours, 28 minutes, and 23 seconds and will be the longest lunar eclipse to happen this century. Longer than any eclipse of 2001 and 2100. And during the lunar eclipse, "the moon moves through western part of the constellation Taurus. The Pleiades star cluster is to the upper right and the Hyades cluster including the Aldebran, eye of the bull is in the Lowe left."
