Did you see yesterday's total lunar eclipse?
今日の夕方から20時にかけ、日本の広い範囲で部分月食が起こります。今回の部分月食は、月の直径の98%が隠れるため、ほぼ皆既月食に近い状態になります。「ほぼ皆既に近い部分月食」は、日本では140年ぶりのことです。お見逃しなく。
This evening, until 8pm, there will be a partial lunar eclipse over a large area of Japan. Since 98% of the Moon's diameter will be hidden, it will seem almost like a total lunar eclipse. This is the first deep partial eclipse in Japan in 140 years. Don't miss it!
