Tonight, Malawians have treated to a rare celestial performance — a total lunar eclipse, better known as the Blood Moon.
From around 8:30 pm, the Moon began slipping into Earth’s shadow, and by 9:30 pm till now( nearly 11:00 pm), it is still glowing in a striking red over Malawi’s skies. No telescope, no glasses — just clear horizons and a moment of stillness are needed to enjoy this wonder.
The Blood Moon is more than science; it is sky poetry. As the Moon turns red, it reminds us that even in darkness, beauty shines through. So step outside tonight, look up, and share in a moment that connects Malawi with the rest of the watching world.
This once in a blue moon event is happening all around the world and the blood moon can be seen in European countries, America and some African countries including Malawi.
