Photo Story: The Partial Lunar Eclipse
A multiple exposure image shows the phases of the partial lunar eclipse as seen from Mallorca, Spain, 16 July 2019.
The partial lunar eclipse on 16 July 2019, took place 50 years after the astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins launched aboard a Saturn V rocket toward the Moon in 1969.
The 20 July 2019 will mark the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing.
The event was visible across Europe and was also expected to be seen from Africa, much of Asia, the eastern part of South America, and western Australia.
Lunar eclipses can only occur on the night of a full moon.
The next partial lunar eclipse is not expected until 19 November 2021.
