A filmer in Kruger National Park in South Africa captured the initial phase of a total lunar eclipse on July 27. This total lunar eclipse will be the longest of the century.<br /><br />“With no light pollution across the whole African wilderness of Kruger National Park, this spectacle was as clear and bright as it could possibly be,” the filmer said.<br /><br />“The close-up footage captures the initial phase of the eclipse when the earth's umbra starts covering the moon, making the eclipse more visible to the naked eye,” the filmer explained.
