This partial lunar eclipse coincides with October’s full moon, known as the Hunter’s Moon, commencing on Saturday, October 28, and extending into Sunday, October 29. However, it is important to note that this eclipse is partial due to the somewhat imperfect alignment of the Earth, moon, and sun.

According to the Met Office, the Penumbral Eclipse will commence at 23:02 PST on October 28, while the partial eclipse will begin at 00:35 PST on October 29. The penumbral eclipse is expected to conclude at 03:26 PST on October 29, and the partial eclipse will end at 01:53 PST.
