Am Freitagmorgen tritt der Mond in den Kernschatten der Erde ein und verursacht eine totale Mondfinsternis. In Deutschland ist der so genannte Blutmond allerdings nur teilweise zu sehen. Besonders gute Sichtbedingungen gibt es in Leipzig, Magdeburg und Jena. Beobachter in Chile haben das Glück, das gesamte Himmelsereignis zu sehen. Die nächste totale Mondfinsternis in Deutschland findet am 7. September 2025 statt.

Overview

  • A partial lunar eclipse occurred early on March 14, visible in some parts of Germany depending on weather conditions.
  • Observers in Germany could only see the initial phases of the lunar eclipse as the Moon set before the event reached its peak.
  • Cloud cover limited visibility in many regions, with better chances of observation in areas with clear skies in the west.
  • A partial solar eclipse is scheduled for March 29, with visibility varying by location across Germany.
  • Experts stress the importance of using proper eye protection, such as eclipse glasses, to safely view the solar eclipse.
