କାଲି ଚନ୍ଦ୍ରଗ୍ରହଣ ! ‘Blood Moon’ on Rakhi Purnima: Rare Total Lunar Eclipse to Turn the Moon Red

A spectacular ‘Blood Moon’ is set to occur around Rakhi Purnima as a total lunar eclipse takes place on August 28. According to the information provided, the eclipse will begin at 6:53 AM IST and continue until 12:32 PM, with the maximum eclipse expected around 9:34 AM. Around 96% of the Moon will be covered by Earth’s shadow during the eclipse. However, the event will not be visible from India because it will be daytime when the eclipse reaches its peak. The lunar eclipse is expected to be visible from parts of North America, South America, Europe and Africa. The term ‘Blood Moon’ refers to the reddish appearance of the Moon during a total lunar eclipse. The red colour occurs because sunlight passing through Earth’s atmosphere is filtered and refracted toward the Moon. Here’s what science says about this fascinating celestial phenomenon. #BloodMoon #LunarEclipse #TotalLunarEclipse #RakhiPurnima #BloodMoon2026 #August28 #Astronomy #SpaceNews #CelestialEvent #Moon #ScienceNews #LunarEclipse2026 #News18Odia #OdiaNews #odishanews #oriyanews #breakingnews #weathernews News18 Odia is one of Odisha's leading and most trusted Odia news channels, bringing you the latest, fastest, and most reliable news from Odisha, India, and around the world.
