JAKARTA - The Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) released a number of points in Indonesia that could see firsthand rare natural events, namely the total lunar eclipse, on Sunday, September 7 evening.
According to official BMKG information, the eclipse will take place from Sunday 7 September night until Monday 8 September in the morning. At its peak phase, the Moon will appear to be red and dark due to the refraction of the Sun's light by the Earth's atmosphere. This phenomenon can be enjoyed with the naked eye, but will be seen more clearly using the telescope.
In western Indonesia, the entire eclipse phase can be observed. As for eastern Papua, the Moon will set before the series of eclipses are over.
