A total lunar eclipse will occur early on March 4 and would be visible all over India.

The Moon's eclipse would begin from 3 am and enter totality from 4.14 am with the `greatest eclipse' being at around 4.50 am, Director (Research and Academics) of M P Birla Planetarium here D. P. Duari said today.

The total eclipse would end by 5.27 am and the Moon would emerge around 7.53 am.

The celestial phenomenon will be visible from the Arctic, Asia, except the eastern part, Europe, including British Isles, Africa, South America and eastern parts of the region, South America and eastern parts of Central and North America.

"People of Kolkata will enjoy the first part of the partial eclipse followed by the totality," Duari said, adding that the end of the partial eclipse would not be visible in Kolkata since the Moon would set around 6 am.

Weather permitting, it will be a wonderful opportunity for Kolkatans to view the total eclipse which coincides with Holi.

The official said the next lunar eclipse would also be a total one on August 28, adding that only the extreme north-eastern states would be able to witness it
