Lunar eclipse last night

Thursday, 16 June 2011

Last night because of lunar eclipse I had to be hurry to home before 9.30, but still I reached home by 9.40 pm. But it was not too late because I came to know that lunar eclipse will be starting by 9.55 pm. “Religiously, eclipses are not considered good. A set of rituals are performed during this period”, said by pundits. At 9.30 pm I saw a big hallow around the bright moon, it was nice to see from the terrace. Didn’t continue seeing the whole process of lunar eclipse, slept off. I’ve read the newspaper Times of India early the morning through net. For us it was not so clear when compared to the city of Lucknow. Here in Vizag, people got disappointed with the clouds shattering the moon to see the complete and longest lunar eclipse. Last night large numbers of people were gathered at the beach road to witness the lunar eclipse. It is the history of the astronomical science; most of the parts in the country had completely witnessed it with naked eye. In the city of Lucknow, people witnessed the century’s first total lunar eclipse last night. The creamy white moon looked like orange.
