TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE FEB 20: WILL YOU BE ABLE TO SEE IT ?
As mentioned before on this blog there will be a total eclipse of the Moon on February 20 (8 more days to go). Will you be able to see it ? Look at the map above. The darkened area is the area of the Earth from which the full time of totality will be observable. The pink are on the right signifies areas where only the end of the total eclipse will be seen, and the blue area on the left is where only the end will be seen. The cross almost due south from Winnipeg is where the Moon will be at its zenith at the time of mid-totality. Please see our previous entry on this blog for the times of the various parts of th eclipse.
