First Lunar Eclipse in 3 Years to be Visible in Korean Sky

A full lunar eclipse will be visible in South Korea for the first time in three years on Wednesday night.

The Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) predicted that a partial eclipse will start at 6:14 p.m. before an-hour-long full eclipse will begin at 7:24 p.m. The following partial eclipse will be over at 10:35 p.m.
 
The Korea Meteorological Administration said the weather will be clear during the lunar eclipse and people should have no problem seeing it.   
 
KASI said it will hold public events to view the lunar eclipse in 34 places across the country, including at Sogang University in Seoul and the Daejeon Observatory.
