[Title] => March 15 eclipse to be seen in RP
[Summary] => Rise at moonset, and catch the moon cross the earth’s shadow to the southwest.
A penumbral eclipse visible in the country on the night of March 15 will also be visible in the Americas, Europe, Africa and Asia, according to astronomer Elmor Escosia of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA).
"The eclipse begins when the moon enters penumbra at 5:21 a.m. and ends at 10:13 a.m. However, the moon sets at 6:07 a.m., so the rest of the event can no longer be seen in the country," Escosia said.

[Title] => Equinox: When day and night are at same length
[Summary] => All things being equal, a celestial phenomenon that occurs twice a year will happen tomorrow, Sept. 23: The "equinox," that time of year when day and night are of equal length, with each being 12 hours in duration.
The word "equinox" derives from the Latin term "equinoctium," which in turn comes from "equus"(equal) and "nox" (night).

[Title] => Another blue moon this month
[Summary] => Will the blue moon by month’s end see Filipinos, as the song goes, standing alone?
"The blue moon will occur on Aug. 30," astronomer Elmor Escosia of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) told The STAR yesterday.
According to Escosia, the blue moon is the extra full moon, or the 13th instead of only 12 full moons this year and the second full moon this month after the one that occurred last Sunday, Aug. 1.
The period from one full moon to another is 29.53 days, the astronomer said.
