There will be a lunar eclipse on July 27 and it will be the longest one. The Moon will be seen in red blood color and one can see it with the naked eye. In India, it is visible after 11pm in the night and it will be there for hours till the early hours of 28th it is reported. People call it grahanam and would go for bathing in rivers with pooja. It will be a full moon day so it will not be white but you can see it in red color and that is the reason they are calling it blood moon. This is one of the special celestial events.
The moon passes through the darkest shadow of the earth and it appears as if the earth is swallowing the moon.It is a grand gala event for the moon watchers and also the scientists. They have been waiting for the celestial event for a long time. This will be the longest lunar event of the 21st century with a duration of about 2 hours it is being estimated. People in New Delhi are supposed to have a good picture of this Lunar eclipse and if it rains due to monsoon and then it would be out bad luck that we will not be in a position to see it.
