A description of the celestial event occurring on Sunday, September 7: the manifestation of the Full Corn Moon.
Get ready for a celestial spectacle! The night sky will be ablaze with a unique event on the evening of September 7, 2025. The Full Moon will undergo a total lunar eclipse, a rare and awe-inspiring sight that will be visible from various parts of the world.
The eclipse will begin at approximately 7:21 P.M., with the Moon starting to take on a reddish hue as it enters the Earth's shadow. For those in eastern Africa through western Australia, the total eclipse will be visible in its entirety. Regions outside these bounds will still get to witness a partial eclipse, offering a glimpse of this cosmic event.
Interestingly, the Moon is currently approaching Saturn and Neptune, which are located near the Circlet of Pisces. Tomorrow afternoon, the Moon will pass north of these gas giants, providing a truly remarkable celestial alignment.
For those in Europe, parts of Asia (excluding central Asia where the eclipse is total), eastern Australia, Africa, and New Zealand, at least part of the total eclipse will be visible but not the entire duration. Meanwhile, regions such as Hawaii, parts of Alaska, and certain regions of the U.S. will have partial visibility of the eclipse.
As the night progresses, the Moon will continue its journey through the Earth's shadow, with the total eclipse ending around 8:43 P.M. After the total phase, the Moon will leave the Earth's shadow, and its full, bright glow will once again light up the night sky.
Moonrise will occur at 7:26 P.M., and moonset will take place at 6:17 A.M. The following morning, sunrise will occur at 6:34 A.M., marking the end of the night's celestial spectacle.
So, mark your calendars and find a clear spot in the sky to witness this stunning cosmic event. The total lunar eclipse on September 7, 2025, is an opportunity not to be missed!
