@Kandae11 Only 8-9% of the moon will pass through Earth's shadow. It is not a full eclipse.

That would be a wonderful phenomenon. I think for those who are keen about Astrology, such events could have some significance. Else, it would make a lot of headlines.

Check my post, the areas are mentioned there - should be in the link too. They said parts of Asia but didn't specify which countries.

@allknowing It may not. However l would check the countries in Asia which are closest to Europe, if India is among them it would mean you are in.

As far South as I am, I doubt I'll see much of anything. But, I've heard about it.

@Kandae11 I would be surprised if you do. Although if it's clear enough you might stand a chance.

@Kandae11 With all the smoke that is in the air here it will be impossible to see it.

That will be really something. Looks like the southern hemisphere misses out.
