It is expected to peak at 10:44 PM.<\/p>\n<p>Weather permitting, no special equipment is needed to view the eclipse but a pair of binoculars will help since it will be partial.<\/p>\n<p>The partial lunar eclipse will also be visible from most of North America, all of South America, Europe, all but the easternmost parts of Africa, western portions of Asia and Russia, and parts of Antarctica, according to Space.com.<\/p>\n<p>If you are unable to watch the lunar eclipse in person you can watch all of the action on Space.com.<\/p>\n<p>Viewing the partial lunar eclipse depends on your location. If you are on the eastern coast of the United States or the Caribbean, it will enter its darkest phase at 10:44 pm.<\/p>\n<p>People in Europe and Africa can see it in the early hours of Wednesday, September 18. For London, the eclipse will peak at 3:45 AM, local time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you are a sky-gazer or interested in celestial events, then tonight (Tuesday) you are in for a treat as a partial solar eclipse will be visible from Dominica.
