Chandra grahan today: The second last lunar eclipse of 2025 will begin at 9.58 minutes on the night of 7 September, which will run for 1 to 26 minutes.

On the occasion of lunar eclipse, let us know 10 amazing facts related to the moon.
1- Moon is the only natural satellite in the Earth, which is about 3.84 lakh kilometers from the Earth. It has no light of its own. It shines by reflecting the sunlight.
2- From the earth we can see only one part of the moon. This is because it takes almost the same time (about 27.3 days) to make a round of the earth and walk on his own. Due to this, we see only a part of the moon.

3- The portion of the moon that we do not see, the picture of the Soviet Union and his Luna 3 modules were first drawn in 1959.
4- There is no atmosphere, watermandal or significant magnetic field on the moon, due to which its temperature (180 ° C) and at night (-153 ° C) reaches the day. Due to this, life is not possible here. The Moon is going about 3.78 cm away from the Earth every year.
5- Gravity on the moon is about 1/6th of the gravity of the Earth. That is, if the weight of a person on earth is 120 kg, then it will be just 20 kg on the moon.
6- More than 3,00,000 craters (pits) have been found on the nearest part of the Moon from the Earth on the nearest part of the moon. The largest crater discovered on the Moon is the southern pole-etaken basin, with a diameter of 2500 km and about 8 kilometers.
7- The shadows on the moon look deeper than the earth. This is because there is no atmosphere on the moon. Therefore, such shadows cannot be made by refraining parts of light that create more contrast.
8- The diameter of the moon is 3474 km, while the Vyas (east to west) of Australia is 600 km more than 4000 km. At the same time, the total diameter of the earth is 12742 km.
9- If there was no moon, there would not be tide in our oceans. Due to the gravitational force of the moon, the water of the earth is pulled towards it, which creates tidal force.
10- During lunar eclipse, the sun, earth and moon come in the same direction, which prevents the sunlight of the Earth. This causes the shadow of the earth on the moon, which makes it look very blurred. Many times the color of the moon surface turns red, which is called blood moon.
