“Look up at the skies tonight, think of our three fellow humans hurtling across space towards the moon on Apollo11 and enjoy the partial lunar eclipse visible from our islands!” they wrote.

The maximum eclipse will occur at 11.30pm, with the partial eclipse ending at 00.59am. Everything will be over by 02.17am but the change won’t be visible to the naked eye.
