A total lunar eclipse will take place on July 17, 2065. The lunar eclipse will last 1 hour and 37 minutes, and the umbra will completely cover the moon. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may be stained a deep orange or red color at maximum eclipse.[1] The partial eclipse will last for 3 hours and 36 minutes in total. This eclipse will be a central eclipse; this means the center of the umbra will pass on the moon.[2] [3]
This lunar eclipse will be visible at moonset over Siberia, Japan, the Pacific Islands, and New Zealand. It will be fully visible over most of East and Central Asia, Australia, and Antarctica. Europe, Western Asia, and East Africa will see the eclipse at moonrise. North and South America will not see this eclipse.
A lunar eclipse will be preceded and followed by solar eclipses by 9 years and 5.5 days (a half saros).[4] This lunar eclipse is related to two annular solar eclipses of Solar Saros 137.
This eclipse occurs in an eclipse season. An eclipse season is the period that happens every 5-6 months in which eclipses can occur. This eclipse season has 2 solar eclipses and 1 lunar eclipse.
