<p>Lunar eclipse takes place when Earth comes between the Moon and the Sun in a way that Earth's shadow falls on the Moon. Depending on the coverage, the lunar eclipse can be partial or total.</p>


<p>It is not only that last lunar eclipse of the year but also last lunar eclipse before the year 2025. So you better catch this one!<br />
&nbsp;</p>


<p>Not quite, Sunrays refracted from Earth's atmosphere would cast&nbsp;some light on the lunar disc. So even a total lunar eclipse is not 'total' per se. But most of the lunar disc will get covered and part of it which doesn't, will assume a reddish hue. And it will be a sight to behold!</p>


<p>The lunar eclipse is set to begin at 2:39 IST on November 8. The totality will start at 3:46 pm. The phase of totality will end at 5:12 pm. But the partial phase of the eclipse will continue till 6.19 pm</p>


<p>Having difficulty viewing the total lunar eclipse? No worries.</p>

<p>Telescopes and observatories around the world have they lenses glued to the Moon. You can watch the eclipse Live when it starts.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Here's the Live stream of Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles.</p>

There are beliefs that we should not go out and see them, we should not eat during eclipse etc," said Niruj Mohan Ramanujam from National Centre for Radio Astrophysics, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) in Pune.<br /><br />"Eclipse is the time when we realise that the universe is extremely grand where things move constantly. To miss such an event would be a pity," Ramanujam, who is also a member of the Public Outreach and Education Committee at Astronomical Society of India, told.
