Pictures of this rare scene came out from different parts of the country. People from cities like Delhi-NCR, Lucknow, Guwahati, Chennai and Thiruvananthapuram shared unique pictures of the moon on social media.

Not only India, but also in Thailand, China, Hong Kong, Japan and Australia, people saw this astronomical event with great enthusiasm.

In these countries, astronomers looked at the changing colors of the moon for several minutes with the help of telescope and other scientific equipment.

According to experts, the lunar eclipse occurs when the earth comes between the Sun and the Moon and the sunlight does not reach the moon directly. Because of this, the color of the moon turns red. Scientists say that this incident is a very important opportunity for astronomical studies.

According to scientists, this experience was the most special for those who watch from Asia and Australia. The reason for this was that the lunar eclipse occurred exactly 2.7 days before the moon reached Perigee.

Perigi is the situation when the Moon is closest to the Earth in its orbit. For this reason, this time the moon appeared bigger and more bright than normal.
