There will be a rare and spectacular lunar eclipse called the Blood Moon on the evening of September 7-8.
When the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, it creates a shadow that gives the moon's surface a vivid reddish-orange colour.
According to Space.com, "The Earth, Moon, and Sun just have to be in perfect alignment for us to have an eclipse."
The eclipse can be seen in Pakistan starting at 8:28pm PST on September 7, with the Moon reaching totality at 10:30pm PST.
The Moon will be completely eclipsed for about 82 minutes, until 11:52pm PST on September 7.
After that, a transition phase will begin on September 8 at 12:56am. PST, when the partial eclipse will end.
Ultimately, the celestial event will conclude on September 8 at 1:55am. PST with the penumbral eclipse.
While the Americas will regrettably miss the spectacle, this event will be visible in a number of locations, including parts of Europe, Africa, and Asia.
The Blood Moon can be seen from the comfort of one's home, close to famous landmarks, or from picturesque vantage points.
