Kapolei Star Gazing: Tonight’s Lunar Eclipse

See a partial lunar eclipse from Kapolei

Tonight marks a lunar eclipse. You will be able to see some of it in Kapolei, but not the whole event. However, it is still an interesting phenomenon. Hawaii’s Sky Today reports on tonight’s lunar eclipse:


The total lunar eclipse will be visible from Hawaii, but not under the
best circumstances. The Moon will already be out of the total phase of
the eclipse when it rises at 6:30 PM on February 20. However the
partial phase will last until around 7:00 PM. We will still be in
twilight for most of that time period but if you are interested in
seeing the lunar eclipse you should be in an area that you could see
the Moon as it rises (facing east).


Last August, a rather spectacular lunar eclipse could be seen from Kapolei. You can watch a time lapse video of this Hawaii lunar eclipse on YouTube.
