Finally, after seven years, a total lunar eclipse will once again be visible in the evening skies. The Moon will enter totality at 7:31 PM and will rise, already eclipsed, around 7:52 PM. The maximum of the eclipse will occur at 8:13 PM, the end of totality at 8:53 PM, and the end of the eclipse at 9:56 PM. The total eclipse is very beautiful to see, especially with large astronomical binoculars, which will therefore be widely used for observing the phenomenon. In addition to framing the event, the Center's telescopes will also be aimed at the double stars of the season, and as the sky darkens, it will also be possible to show some of the brighter deep-sky objects, such as open and globular clusters.
In case of bad weather, the evening will take place at the planetarium, with a simulation of the phenomenon, a look at the sky of the month, and other spectacular videos.
