ABSTRACT
The
amazing scenario of the setting Septionun (WESTERN WORD) and the rising Moon at
Visakhapatnam has been captured in several photos by the author. Surprisingly the Sea water happens to be pristine blue, a bewildering sight on
the Eclipse eve. Pictures taken on the eve from 5h30m PM to almost 6h40m PM.
Roughly from 5h54mPM to 6h02mPM i.e., about 8 minutes, the possibility of simultaneously
seeing the Sun setting in the West while the eclipsed Full Moon rising in the
East has been observed. Dolphin’s Nose Hill at Visakhapatnam, allowed only the
Red hue of colors splashed on to the clouds, of an impending storm from Arabian
Sea, a magnificent view memorable. In Tokyo's Roppongi fashion and entertainment district, enthusiasts
performed yoga exercises under the
blood moon. The Volcanic eruption in
Sumatra on Oct. 9, 2014 just for 15 minutes only. The Pacific Tsunami
Warning Center, based in Hawaii, said on Wednesday that the Earthquake, which
hit at 0214 GMT (0744 IST) at 10 kilometers deep, registered as a 6.8 before
upgrading it to a 7.2. "An
earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 7.2 occurred near the southern East
Pacific rise at 0215 UTC (GMT) Thursday, October 9 2014".
The relationship of Volcano activity,
Earthquakes occurrence and the Lunar Eclipse is strongly believed in India, by
astrologers. The recent account seems to be no exception though it was a formal
finding.
After months of appeals
to conserve water, Californians appear to be finally getting the message,
making substantial cuts in water consumption in the face of the state's
drought. September 27, 2014 at 5h09m PM, Concern is mounting about dwindling
water supplies across Iran, from the densely populated, smog-ridden capital and
its parched suburbs to provincial towns and cities to far-flung corners of the
nation, much of which is desert. Lakes and rivers have been drying up,
reservoirs are at historic lows and water supplies have been cut in some areas.
The annual snowmelt from the mountains is on the decline. "We are consuming as little as
possible," said Aziz, a father with young daughters. "We shower only two
times a week. So we are not responsible for the water shortages".
INTRODUCTION
In Tokyo's Roppongi fashion and
entertainment district, enthusiasts performed yoga exercises under the blood
moon.
Visakhapatnam
Oct. 8
was a hot day very sunny and in the evening around 4PM the clouds gathered and
it became pleasantly mild weather. The Moon was observed around at its time of
rise at 5h54mPM at Visakhapatnam with lunar eclipse till 6:05PM IST and pictures captured are presented
in this article on Full Moon Day of Oct.
8, 2014. On the eve of Oct.8 the clouds gathered and the full Red Hue of the
setting Sun reflected in the Clouds and several pictures taken to observe the
evening Red glow of the setting Sun by the author. Surprisingly the Sea water
happens to be pristine blue a bewildering sight on the Eclipse eve. Pictures
taken on the eve from 5h30mPM to almost 6h40m PM and they would reveal the
scenario of Visakhapatnam Beach shore with splendid spectral features. Most
concentrated study required to gather information about Eclipse and its
sustained affects.
1. JAPAN VOLCANO ERUPTION
Thirty
one hikers have been found lifeless near the peak of Mount Ontake after
Saturday Sept. 27 sudden volcanic eruptions.
About 250 people were trapped on the slopes of the popular beauty spot, but
most have got down safely. The volcano,
about 200km (125 miles) west of Tokyo, erupted without warning on Saturday,
spewing ash and rocks. The eruption forced many of those on the mountain to
make emergency descents through clouds of volcanic ash and falling rocks.
Almost 50 people were thought to have stayed on the mountain overnight, reports
said. Heavy, toxic volcanic ash up to 20cm (8in) thick covered much of the
mountain, reports said. Japan's second-highest volcano occurred following a
violent eruption. The victims were found near the peak of the 10,062-foot
mountain and appear to have been knocked unconscious by debris erupting from
the volcano, or were overcome by the dense ash or toxic fumes. These were the
first fatalities from a volcanic eruption in Japan since 1991.
2. Volcanic activity worldwide 30 Sept 2014
Kilauae
Volcano Dienstag: Kilauea ( Hawai’i) Following several days of increased
pressure at Kilauea’s Summit, lava activity picked up on June 27, with new
flows moved to North, on a pathway leading slightly away from the town of
Pahoa.
3. Stromboli Volcano, Sinabung, Ontake-san, Santiaguito
Mittwoch Oct 01, 2014
Stromboli(Eolian
Island, Italy), The eruptive activity has resumed more or less unchanged with
the flow active while sporadic explosive activity continued from the Summit
Vents. As lava output rates from 650m vent fluctuate, the front lava flow,
located in central part of the Sciara del Fucco since Sept 6, advances and
retreats in the lower part of Sciara, sometimes almost reaching the Sea.
4.
Stromboli Volcano, Bardarbunga, Freitag, Oct 3, 2014
On Oct
2, lava overflow has established a new channel for the ongoing lava flow along
the upper part of of Sciara del Fuoco, close to the escarpment and more visible
from the 400m webcam. The previous active flow in the central part of the
Sciara has become inactive
Samstag,
Oct 04, 2014; Stromboli, Eolian Island
Italy
The lava
continues to flow through the northern channel on the upper Sciaraion rate del Fuoco. Effusion rate remains significant.
Small ash emissions continued to occur from the western vents.
6. Sonntag, Oct 5, 2014,Sinabung,
Sumatra, Indonesia
Lava extrusions continued with series of small to moderately
sized pyroclastic flows that occurred in the morning at the Volcano. The flows
were produced due to upper, unstable and still growing the viscous lava. SE
flank collapsed.

Stromboli
volcano, Bardarbunga, Copahue
Mittwoch Oct 08, 2014
10:00, Lava continues to flow from the effusive vent under the NE crater and
forms several active branches on the upper Sciara del Fuoco. When observed last
evening, the most advanced flow fronts were at 500-550 m elevation.
Near-constant glowing rockfalls detach from the lava flows, sometimes reaching
the lower parts of the Sciara. Occasional ash emissions, sometimes with audible
detonations occurred from the western vent at the summit craters.
8. Strong
Earthquake jolts Southeastern Pacific
USGS Washington October 9, 2014. Updated 11h43m IST
A strong earthquake shook the south eastern Pacific, about
570 kilometers south of Chile's Easter Island, the US Geological Survey has
said. The Pacific Tsunami Warning
Center, based in Hawaii, said on Wednesday that the quake, which hit at 0214
GMT (0744 IST) at 10 kilometers deep, registered as a 6.8 before upgrading it
to a 7.2. "An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 7.2 occurred near
the southern East Pacific rise at 0215 UTC (GMT) Thursday, October 9
2014," a statement from the Pacific center said.
TEMPLES IN INDIA
Srikalahasteeswara
Swamy temple in Srikalahasthi will remain open and Grahanakala Abhisekham will
be performed to the presiding deity. The eclipse will be from 4h45mPM to
7h05mPM. In rest of temples in Andhra, the temple doors closed at 9h30m AM,
with Suddhi, Punyahavachanam performed, and with doors opened at 8 PM and Sarva
Dharshana will be allowed at 10h30m PM onwards.
In India, the total lunar eclipse started from 1.44 pm and
continued till 6:05 pm IST. Wednesday's partial
lunar eclipse is of nearly 16 minutes duration in Lucknow.
According to the UP Amateur
Astronomers Club, the eclipse would start from moonrise at around 5.47pm and
would end at 6.04 pm.

CAUTION:
Below presented from the web sites world around speak about the East set of
Moon and Moon when it sets as the Sun, is coming up.
Stargazers in the Americas
and Asia were treated to a lunar eclipse Wednesday, a celestial show that
bathed the moon in a reddish tint to create a "blood moon." During
the total lunar eclipse, light beams into Earth's shadow, filling it with a
coppery glow that gives it a red hue. The early phase of the eclipse began at
0800 GMT, or 4am, on the east coast of the United States. The moon took from
orange on an
eerie blood-red hue or brown early Tuesday during the first total lunar eclipse
of 2014, a celestial sight that wowed potentially millions of stargazers across
North and South America, Hawaii and parts of Alaska, the Pacific
Ocean, New Zealand, Australia and Eastern Asia are in a good position to watch
the total eclipse..
The lunar eclipse peaked at 3 a.m. EDT (0700
GMT), with the moon taking 78 minutes to pass through the darkest point of
Earth's shadow. The distinct coloring was caused as the
Moon passed into the deepest part of the Earth's shadow (the umbra*), with the
Sun's rays refracting through our planet's atmosphere to disperse the other
parts of the spectrum of visible light, leaving only the red portion to reflect
of the Moon's surface.
From 08:06 BST (07:06
GMT) our planet's natural satellite was fully eclipsed for more than 75 minutes
and shrouded in a reddish glow.

A partially eclipsed full moon in 2011 hangs in the
evening sky over Belgrade, Serbia, on Wednesday during the start of a total
lunar eclipse. Earth’s shadow started to darken the
moon around 18:22 universal Time or UT (2:22 PM. Eastern Time). The period when
the moon is completely engulfed in Earth's shadow, known as totality, began at
19:22 UT and lasted for almost two hours.

Total lunar eclipse on Wednesday would have an unusual
twist
Observers of Wednesday
morning's total lunar eclipse might be able to catch sight of an extremely rare
cosmic sight. On Oct. 8, interested sky watchers should attempt to see the total eclipse of the moon
and the rising Sun simultaneously. The little-used name for this effect is
called a "selenelion," a phenomenon that celestial geometry says
cannot happen.
And indeed, during a
lunar eclipse, the sun and moon are exactly 180 degrees apart in the sky. In a
perfect alignment like this (called a "syzygy"), such an observation
would seem impossible. But, thanks to Earth's atmosphere, the images of both the
Sun and Moon are apparently lifted above the horizon by atmospheric refraction.
This allows people on Earth to see the Sun for several extra minutes before it
actually has risen and the Moon for several extra minutes after it has actually
set.
As a consequence of this
atmospheric trick, for many localities East of the Mississippi River, watchers
will have a chance to observe this unusual sight firsthand. Weather permitting
one can have a short window of roughly 2 to 9 minutes (depending on the
location) with the possibility of simultaneously seeing the sun rising in the East
while the eclipsed full Moon is setting in the West.
Regions of visibility Europe etc.
From Newfoundland, the
start of the partial stages of the total eclipse begins about 30 to 45 minutes
before Moon-set. A growing scallop of darkness will appear on the upper left
part of the moon when it sets as the Sun is coming up. Across eastern Nova
Scotia, only the lower most portion of the moon will be in view as it drops
below the western horizon. Farther to the west and south along the Atlantic
seaboard, the moon will rise completely immersed in the Earth's shadow.
People who live in those
portions of the United States and Canada that are a few hundred miles inland
from the Eastern Seaboard should have a good view of the Moon's emergence from
the umbra somewhat later. The low, partially eclipsed Moon in deep-blue
twilight should offer a wide variety of interesting scenic possibilities for
both artists and Astro-photographers. From Toronto and points south through the
eastern Ohio Valley and into the Piedmont to the Florida Gulf Coast, a peculiar-looking,
waxing crescent moon with its cusps pointing downward will appear to set beyond
the western horizon.
Farther west, across the
western Great Lakes and down through the Deep South to the Gulf of Mexico, the
moon will appear to be notched on its lower right side by the shadow.
Going still farther
west, the Moon will go down "full," but if the western horizon is
haze-free, assiduous observers from much of Minnesota, western Iowa, eastern
portions of Nebraska and Kansas as well as central sections of Oklahoma and
Texas might still be able to detect a faint penumbral stain on the moon's lower
right limb.
Lunar eclipse tonight may highlight Draconid meteor shower
Total eclipse starts at 3:15 a.m. PT (6:15 a.m. ET) on Wednesday
CBC News Dt. Oct 07, 2014 5:00 AM ET ;
Updated: Oct 07, 2014 6:27 PM ET
The atmosphere scatters most of the
blue light, leaving only the red to hit the moon causing it to appear red. "It's
the same reason why the sky is blue and why sunset is red". The edge of the Earth's shadow will begin to pass over
October's full moon, traditionally called the hunter's moon, at 1:15 a.m. PT or
4:15 a.m. ET. It will cover the moon for a total lunar eclipse starting 3:15
a.m. PT or 6:15 a.m. ET and lasting 59 minutes.
A total lunar eclipse
will be visible across much of the Americas and Asia in the coming hours. The
eclipse starts at 08:00 GMT (04:00 EDT), reaching totality just before sunrise
at 10:25 GMT (06:25 EDT). During the
eclipse, which is the second to occur this year, our only natural satellite
will be fully covered by the Earth's shadow. The Moon will appear orange or
red, the result of sunlight scattering off our atmosphere, hence the name Blood
Moon.

LACK OF DRINKING WATER
After months of appeals
to conserve water, Californians appear to be finally getting the message,
making substantial cuts in water consumption in the face of the state's
drought. September 27, 2014 at 5h09m PM, Concern is mounting about dwindling
water supplies across Iran, from the densely populated, smog-ridden capital and
its parched suburbs to provincial towns and cities to far-flung corners of the
nation, much of which is desert. Lakes and rivers have been drying up,
reservoirs are at historic lows and water supplies have been cut in some areas.
The annual snowmelt from the mountains is on the decline. "We are consuming as little as
possible," said Aziz, a father with young daughters. "We shower only
two times a week. So we are not responsible for the water shortages".
CONCLUSIONS
Surprisingly the Sea water happens to be pristine blue, a bewildering sight on the Eclipse eve. Pictures
taken on the eve from 5h30m PM to almost 6h40m PM.
Roughly from 5h54mPM to 6h02mPM i.e., about 8 minutes, the possibility of
simultaneously seeing the Sun setting in the West while the eclipsed Full Moon
rising in the East has been observed. Dolphin’s Nose Hill at Visakhapatnam,
