Partial lunar eclipse to grace German skies on August 28
A partial lunar eclipse will cross German skies on August 28, starting at 4.33am and peaking just after 6am. Find out how and where to watch it.
Germany will witness a partial lunar eclipse on August 28, following a recent solar eclipse. A partial lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow over the moon. During this eclipse, 94 percent of the moon will be covered by the Earth's umbra, resulting in a reddish appearance. The eclipse begins at 4:33am and peaks just after 6am.
To view the eclipse, one should wake up early, find an elevated spot and have an unobstructed view of the horizon, preferably in a location like a national park. However, the German Weather Service predicts cloudy weather with showers and possible thunderstorms on the day of the eclipse, so clear skies are required for a good view.
