A “blood moon” will be visible across the world on Tuesday, during which the planet satellite will turn a reddish-orange colour.
It will be the second total lunar eclipse in 2022, with the first one having taken place in May.
What time will the lunar eclipse be visible?
The total lunar eclipse — the final one for three years — will take place from 2.16pm to 3.41pm UAE time, lasting nearly an hour and a half as Earth passes directly between the moon and sun.
People in North America will see the blood moon before sunrise while those in Asia, Australia and the rest of the Pacific will witness the phenomenon at sunset.
But those in the Middle East and most of Europe will have to wait until 2025 to view a lunar eclipse with the naked eye — instead having to resort to internet live streams.
How to watch the blood moon online
The YouTube channel timeanddate will stream the event from 1pm UAE time on November 8.
The Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles and the Italian Virtual Telescope Project will also host streams.
At the peak of the eclipse, the moon will be 390,653 kilometres away, according to Nasa scientists.
Why is it called a blood moon?
The reddish colour is caused from the light of Earth’s sunsets and sunrises. Uranus will also be visible, resembling a bright star slightly above the moon.
Skywatchers in the Middle East can catch the many partial lunar eclipses that will be visible before 2025's total lunar eclipse.

What is an ETF?
An exchange traded fund is a type of investment fund that can be traded quickly and easily, just like stocks and shares. They come with no upfront costs aside from your brokerage's dealing charges and annual fees, which are far lower than on traditional mutual investment funds. Charges are as low as 0.03 per cent on one of the very cheapest (and most popular), Vanguard S&P 500 ETF, with the maximum around 0.75 per cent.
There is no fund manager deciding which stocks and other assets to invest in, instead they passively track their chosen index, country, region or commodity, regardless of whether it goes up or down.
The first ETF was launched as recently as 1993, but the sector boasted $5.78 billion in assets under management at the end of September as inflows hit record highs, according to the latest figures from ETFGI, a leading independent research and consultancy firm.
There are thousands to choose from, with the five largest providers BlackRock’s iShares, Vanguard, State Street Global Advisers, Deutsche Bank X-trackers and Invesco PowerShares.
While the best-known track major indices such as MSCI World, the S&P 500 and FTSE 100, you can also invest in specific countries or regions, large, medium or small companies, government bonds, gold, crude oil, cocoa, water, carbon, cattle, corn futures, currency shifts or even a stock market crash.
Teachers' pay - what you need to know
Pay varies significantly depending on the school, its rating and the curriculum. Here's a rough guide as of January 2021:
- top end schools tend to pay Dh16,000-17,000 a month - plus a monthly housing allowance of up to Dh6,000. These tend to be British curriculum schools rated 'outstanding' or 'very good', followed by American schools
- average salary across curriculums and skill levels is about Dh10,000, recruiters say
- it is becoming more common for schools to provide accommodation, sometimes in an apartment block with other teachers, rather than hand teachers a cash housing allowance
- some strong performing schools have cut back on salaries since the pandemic began, sometimes offering Dh16,000 including the housing allowance, which reflects the slump in rental costs, and sheer demand for jobs
- maths and science teachers are most in demand and some schools will pay up to Dh3,000 more than other teachers in recognition of their technical skills
- at the other end of the market, teachers in some Indian schools, where fees are lower and competition among applicants is intense, can be paid as low as Dh3,000 per month
- in Indian schools, it has also become common for teachers to share residential accommodation, living in a block with colleagues
