Lunar Eclipse 2021 LIVE Streaming: According to the IMD, only a few places in the country will be able to witness the partial lunar eclipse.
Lunar Eclipse 2021 LIVE Streaming (Chandra Grahan 2021): The full moon on Wednesday will be the year's biggest "supermoon" and feature the first total lunar eclipse in more than two years.
During the eclipse, the full moon will pass through the Earth's shadow. It appears red, known as a "blood moon", as light is scattered through the Earth's atmosphere, much like during a sunset.
In addition, the moon will be at perigee, or the closest point to Earth in its orbit, making it appear about 7% larger than normal and 15% brighter or a "super moon," according to astronomers.
May's full moon is known as the "Flower Moon" since it occurs when spring flowers are in bloom. The result when taken together is a "Super Flower Blood Moon."
The eclipse will happen in the early morning hours on Wednesday in western North America, with people in Alaska and Hawaii getting the best views. It can also be seen in southern Chile and Argentina. Skygazers in all of Australia and New Zealand and parts of Southeast Asia can see the eclipse on Wednesday evening. (Map of eclipse path) https://bit.ly/3oOwyya
According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), only a few places in the country will be able to witness the partial lunar eclipse.
The partial lunar eclipse will be visible for a short span from the north-eastern region (except Sikkim), some parts of West Bengal, some coastal parts of Odisha and Andaman and the Nicobar Islands, the IMD said.
This will be the first total Lunar Eclipse since January 21, 2019, and it will be a supermoon. The partial phase of the eclipse will begin at 03:15 pm IST (Indian standard time). The total phase will begin at 04:39 pm IST. The total phase will end at 04:58 pm IST. The partial phase will end at 06:23 pm IST.
However, the eclipse won't be visible for stargazers in all parts of the world.
So, where the event is not visible or obscured by clouds, some observatories will webcast the eclipse.
Here's how you can watch the Lunar eclipse 2021 LIVE Streaming online.
The Griffith Observatory
The Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles will stream live views beginning at 1:45 a.m. PT (0845 GMT) subject to weather conditions. The observatory has also scheduled a live stream on YouTube beginning at 2:15 pm IST on Wednesday. The observatory will not hold public or in-person events like the earlier times due to Covid-19 pandemic. https://griffithobservatory.org/event/lunar-eclipse-online-broadcast-may-26-202
The Lowell Observatory
Lowell Observatory, also known as the Home of Pluto since the planet was discovered at the facility in 1930, in Flagstaff, Arizona, will start its broadcast at 2:30 a.m. PT (0930 GMT). The observatory has also scheduled a live stream on Youtube for 3:00 pm IST on May 26. https://lowell.edu/event/streaming-lunar-eclipse-live
"Lowell educators will show you live views of the eclipse through our 14” Planewave telescope and wide-view portable Vixen telescopes," the observatory said on its website, adding that the experts will also impart the science of eclipses, and Lowell's history with the moon.
The Virtual Telescope Project
Based out of Italy, The Virtual Telescope Project will broadcast not one but two live streams on May 26. The online observatory, founded by astrophysicist Gianluca Masi, will first stream the lunar eclipse at 3:30 pm IST while the supermoon will be broadcast later in the night.
The Astronomical Society of South Australia
The Astronomical Society of South Australia will also broadcast live on Facebook and YouTube starting at 7 p.m. ACST (0930 GMT) or 3:00 pm IST. http://assa.org.au/tle
