A spectacular total lunar eclipse, widely known as a “Blood Moon,” illuminated skies across Pakistan on the night of September 7–8, 2025, with Pakistan’s Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (SUPARCO) capturing striking images from Quetta.
The celestial event began when the moon’s brightness started to fade at 8:28pm (PST). The partial eclipse commenced at 9:27pm, followed by the full total eclipse at 10:31pm.
At its peak at 11:12pm, the moon glowed in red hues before the total phase ended at 11:53pm. The partial eclipse continued until 12:57am, concluding completely at 1:55am on September 8.
The phenomenon was also visible across much of the world, including Europe, Asia, Australia, and Africa.
Observers in Europe and Africa witnessed a partial eclipse during moonrise, while viewers in the Americas missed the spectacle altogether.
