Will Dubai see a rare unusual eclipse this month?
This event occurs once every 150 years.
UAE / Dubai News: For fans of the sky, there will be an unusual eclipse, which should occur on January 31.
According to araanews on Instagram, the supermoon will be visible from several parts of the globe, and in Dubai you can see it at 6:04 pm for 3 minutes.
This event will not leave you disappointed! This rare phenomenon is called “Super Blue Blood Moon”.
According to the journal Science last time this event happened 150 years ago.
But what exactly does this mean? According to the journal Science, Super Blue Blood Moon is a celestial phenomenon consisting of three separate events — a blue moon, a super moon, and a total lunar eclipse, all in one magic package. The blue moon is the term used to refer to the full moon in the second month after the new year. And the moon is called the super-moon when it is in a close position to the Earth, and it seems to be larger than usual. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the moon blocks sunlight and a shadow forms above the earth. And this, in turn, makes the moon appear red - also known as the «blood moon».
