Early risers are in for a treat tomorrow morning as the first of 2011's two full lunar eclipses becomes visible over New Zealand.
A total lunar eclipse happens when the moon moves through the long shadow cast by the Earth and is blocked from the sunlight that illuminates it.
The eclipse will be visible between 6.20 and 7.20am, and is safe to watch with the naked eye.
The next full eclipse will not occur until December 10 this year.
