Tokyo had a lunar eclipse tonight.
It was a partial eclipse, but 98% of the moon was covered with the earth’s shadow in its peak.
The weather in Tokyo was light cloudy, unfortunately.
We could only see a hazy moon in the early night, when the eclipse took place.
I watched the astronomical event from a place near the Imperial Palace, central Tokyo.
The eclipsed moon stayed behind pine trees and skyscrapers.
People were still working in the office buildings. (See also the 1st and 2nd photos in this post).
The moon was very small at the eclipse’s peak.
The astronomical show continues about 2 hours and half.
Later, the weather got better.
The full moon was shining beautifully above Tokyo. (See the 5th photo)
