Mangalore, December 8: One of the best sky events of this year is lunar eclipse on Saturday, December 10. Full moon passes deep into Earth Shadow.
This lunar Eclipse puts on a great show to us on that day. The total eclipse will be between 7.36 pm to 8.27 pm for 51 minutes.
The moon likely will take on an orange red-colour during totality as a small amount of sun light passes through earth atmosphere and scatters on to our only natural planet at totality.
Poornaprajna amateur astronomers club of Poornaprajna College has arranged a programme in collaboration with Sky Telescope Mumbai with their Telescope to watch this wonderful event on the top of MBA building of PPC, from 6 to 9 pm, on Saturday for the students and public.
Anyone can make use of this facility, said Dr. A.P. Bhat, Co-ordinator, Poornaprajna Amateur Astronomers Club, in a press release.
