Blood Moon to Grace Pakistan’s Skies This Weekend
Skywatchers in Pakistan are in for a celestial treat this weekend as the much-anticipated blood moon makes its return. The rare lunar event will cast a striking reddish hue across the moon, creating an awe-inspiring spectacle for stargazers. 
Event Details: Timing and Duration
The lunar eclipse will last for more than five hours, making it one of the longest in recent years. Stargazers will have ample time to witness the moon’s transformation into a glowing red orb. This phenomenon occurs when the Earth positions itself directly between the sun and the moon, allowing Earth’s shadow to bathe the lunar surface in a dramatic crimson light.
Astronomers recommend finding a clear spot away from city lights for the best view. The blood moon is not just a visual delight; it also holds cultural significance in many parts of the world, including Pakistan. Mark your calendars and get your cameras ready to capture this unforgettable event.
