On the morning of September the 8th there is a nice total eclipse, the first in Australia since November 2022. which, sadly you will have to be up very early on a work Monday morning to see. this is a nice deep eclipse with totality lasting 1 hour, 22 minutes.
Times for the eclipse at cities around Australia are below. Western Australia sees all the eclipse, Central states see the eclipse end around Nautical twilight as the sky is brightening. For the east coast totality ends around Nautical Twilight, when the sky is brightening but the eclipse will still be obvious. The eclipse ends after Civil Twilight when the sky is bright, and around the time of moon set (strictly the eclipse has not ended, I have not included the times of the penumbra phases). You will see some sites calling this a “blood Moon”, The Moon does not turn the colour of blood but will go a deep copper colour due to the refraction of red light through our atmosphere.
