Total Lunar Eclipse Viewing

Digital Planetarium Show

Join us for a 20-minute journey through space and time to discover the phenomenon - the Blood Moon! Discover how the precise alignment of the Sun, Earth, and Moon creates a total lunar eclipse, casting Earth's shadow across the lunar surface, darkening the Moon with a reddish hue. We will travel through time and space itself, forwards and backwards to learn the mechanism of “how” and “why” it occurs. Besides the eclipse, we will also visit 2 planets that will be visible in the night sky on 3 Mar. Don’t miss the opportunity to experience one of Astronomy’s most amazing phenomenon as if you were floating in Space itself - all from the comfort of our Omni-Theatre! 

Registration​ 

Registration for telescope viewing starts at 6pm at the main entrance of Science Centre. Ticket holders for Digital Planetarium shows at 5:00pm and 5.40pm may register directly at Omni-Theatre before each show. 

Bag checks may be conducted for security purposes. For a smoother entry experience, we recommend attending the event without bags if possible.​ 

Telescope Viewing​ 

Telescope viewing would start at 7.47pm, or when the Moon is visible, depending on the weather. 

To give everyone a chance to catch the eclipse through the telescope, each visitor will be given up to 1 minute to look through the telescope.​
