Question

as i am four months pregnant,will it effect my baby

Answer 1

The partial lunar eclipse is the morning of Aug-17 in Melborne. Penumbral eclipse begins at 04:25, partial eclipse begins at 05:36, mid eclipse with 81% of the Moon covered is at 07:10, just after the Moon has set in Melborne. Partial eclipse ends at 08:44 and penumbral eclipse ends at 09:55, but of course those phases cannot be seen from Melborne.

Answer 2

Hi Melbourne!

You'll see the partial eclipse Sunday morning the 17th in Australia.

The partial eclipse starts for you at 5:36 a.m. Australian Eastern Time, just about first light in Victoria.  

As the eclipse advances, the sky brightens while the moon is moving down toward moonset.   About ten minutes before mid-eclipse, the sun comes up and the moon sets, at 7:04 a.m. AET.

Those watching in the Central and Western time zones will get to see mid-eclipse and the earth's shadow starting to draw away from the lunar disc, but in the east the moon sets before the middle of the eclipse.

And a lunar eclipse will have no greater effect on your baby than looking out the window at the full moon and stepping away from the window would.
