Spectacle in the sky: Almost total lunar eclipse - but what can be seen?
Next Friday, the moon will move into the Earth's umbra. Parts of the eclipse will also be visible in Germany.
A partial lunar eclipse will occur on August 28, with the Moon entering the Earth's core shadow at 4:34 am. The eclipse will be visible from Germany at the beginning, but as the Moon becomes increasingly obscured, it will be harder to see due to the morning dawn. The maximum eclipse, occurring just after 6 am, will be practically unobservable due to the Moon's low position in the sky.
The eclipse can be captured with a teleobjective or even a smartphone, and another lunar eclipse is expected on February 21 next year, followed by a total lunar eclipse on December 31, 2028.
