Penumbral Eclipse of the Moon on 24 Apr 2005

Post by weixing »

Hi,
A faint penumbral eclipse of the Moon occur on 24 Apr 2005 will be visible in Singapore at Moon rise (19:05 singapore time). We can only see the end of the eclipse... the eclipse will end at 19:59:55 singapore time.

By the way, this is not a spectacular eclipse and I think you may not even notice the eclipse if you look at the Moon at that time, so expectation don't be too high.

Have a nice day.
