Baad salaam,

Mumineen are advised that there is a lunar eclipse tonight. Details follow:

The moon will enter Earth’s umbral
shadow (the full shadow) at 8:43 p.m. ET (that’s 7:43 p.m. Central, 6:43 p.m.
Mountain and 5:43 p.m. Pacific) on Wednesday, Feb. 20. It will appear as though
an ever-larger bite is being taken out of the moon.

Some 78
minutes later, the moon will slip into full eclipse. About 51
minutes later, a bright scallop will appear as the moon starts emerging. It
will be completely out of the umbral shadow at 9:09 p.m. Pacific time, which is
12:09 a.m. ET on Thursday morning.

For Europe
and Africa, the eclipse is a predawn Thursday event, with the moon starting
entry to the umbral shadow at 1:43 Greenwich (or Universal) Time.
