When will the next lunar eclipse be in the UK?
There are normally two lunar eclipses per year, but because of the way the Moon’s orbit is tilted, and the fact that lunar eclipses can only happen at the full moon, in 2009 there will be FOUR lunar eclipses; all very minor. The first three are penumbral eclipses, in which the Moon will be only a little dimmed, and will most likely be unnoticeable.
