A total lunar eclipse will take place on July 7, 2047. It will last 1 hour 40 minutes and 49 seconds and will plunge the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passes right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may be stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This will be a great spectacle for everyone who sees it. The partial eclipse will last for 3 hours and 39 minutes in total.
The moon will pass through the center of the Earth's shadow. Totality will last 100 minutes 49 seconds, the second longest for this Saros series.
