Celestial Treat- Enjoyed A Total Lunar Eclipse on March4 2007
A total lunar eclipse occured early on March four and was visible all over India.
The Moon’s eclipse began at 3:00 am and enter totality at 4.14 am with the ‘greatest eclipse’ occurring at around 4.50 am.The total eclipse ended by 5.27 am and the Moon emerged at around 7.53 am.
The celestial phenomenon was visible from the Arctic, Asia, barring the eastern part, Europe, including British Isles, Africa, South America and eastern parts of Central and North America.
We were very lucky to get to see this wonderful celestial event.I was up at 3.00am in the morning ( normally i don't get up before 7.00am in the morning - only to enjoy this event i had got up early.) and i can say it was a cherishing event altogether !! Those who missed it might not get another chance to see such wonderful event happening and visible to the naked eye.
