Half-done lunar eclipse on June 4, 2012

At morning on Monday, June 4, 2012, the moon move in the shadow of the Earth, known as the "umbra", producing a partial lunar eclipse. This time, the umbra will cover 37% of the lunar disc.
The eclipse will start at 04:00 hours in the morning during the full moon. From this phenomenon, you can see how the white circle will begin to lose its perfection, as if he were a part.
It will be visible across the Pacific from China to the United States.
One can see this beautiful event, simply by using binoculars with 7 increases by 50 mm aperture, and so on. And, of course, also with a telescope.
If you are willing to enjoy it, remember to go to places far from the city, where artificial light may not prevent a good show. When it begins to dawn, sunlight will finish this natural phenomenon.
