The last lunar eclipse of this year will occur next Tuesday, 8. According to information from NASA, the US space agency, the astronomical phenomenon in which the Moon enters the shadow of the Earth will be visible in North America, Central America, in Ecuador and parts of Asia and Oceania. In Brazil, only Acre residents will be able to partially see the phenomenon. Residents of other Brazilian states will be able to follow the lunar eclipse on the Internet, although it is possible that the moon is darker in some regions.
The astronomical institute Lowell Observatory, in Arizona, in the United States, will broadcast the phenomenon live on its YouTube channel, starting at 6 am (Brazil time). The lunar eclipse is expected to be total at 6:17 am. To follow just register.
The Time and Date portal predicts that the phenomenon in Acre, near the border with Peru, will have its closest estimated proximity at 4:57 (Brazil time).
Through the site it will be possible to follow the live broadcast from 6:00 am (Brazil time), carried out with a mobile observatory in Roswell, New Mexico.
It is also possible to follow the phenomenon through the transmission from the Griffith Observatory, in California, starting at 5 am (Brazilian time).
Through social networks, NASA also provides guidelines on when the solar eclipse can be best observed from every location.
Unlike a solar eclipse, the observer does not need to wear sunglasses. Binoculars, however, can help with better visibility. The first lunar eclipse of this year took place in May, with a program that included Ibirapuera Park from the night between the 15th and the 16th.
