“A total lunar eclipse is very easy to observe. A modest pair of binoculars will provide an excellent view of the moon's surface, but it is not required. Unlike solar eclipses, observing a lunar eclipse is completely safe and does not require protective eyewear,” they added.

The weather bureau said that the eclipse, the earth’s umbral shadow would obscure the 100 percent of the moon’s disk, and is called the “blood moon,” because of the reddish hue that the moon will adopt.
