A partial lunar eclipse will be visible across Spain on August 28, according to Euronews. The eclipse, with a magnitude of 0.93, will not require special eye protection.
The lunar eclipse will occur as Earth passes between the sun and moon during the monthly full moon phase. According to Space.com, Earth's shadow will swallow 96% of the lunar surface, potentially turning the moon a deep orange or crimson shade as it bathes in light filtered and refracted by Earth's atmosphere.
The partial lunar eclipse will be visible to roughly 3.3 billion people spread across North America, South America, and parts of Europe and Africa, says Space.com. In Spain, it will be visible across the country. The eclipse starts on August 27 at some point and the maximum eclipse occurs on August 28, with local timings varying depending on the location.
