Overview
- In peninsular Spain the Moon rises already eclipsed, with totality from about 19:31 to 20:53 and maximum near 20:11; only western Galicia and the Canary Islands will see just the late partial phase.
- The eclipse favors the Eastern Hemisphere, with most of the Americas out of view except for fringe glimpses at moonrise or moonset in edge regions.
- Totality lasts roughly 82 minutes as Earth’s atmosphere filters sunlight and gives the lunar disk a reddish hue.
- Spain’s AEMET forecasts widespread clouds that could obstruct observation in many areas this evening.
- The event is safe to watch with the naked eye; seek an unobstructed eastern horizon or follow official livestreams if you are outside the visibility zone.
