MANILA, July 31 (Xinhua) -- Filipinos will be able to witness the year's second total lunar eclipse next month, local newspaper reported on Tuesday.

A total lunar eclipse will be visible in the Philippines and other parts of the world on Aug. 28, state weather bureau PAGASA was quoted by The Philippine Star daily as saying.

The eclipse will begin as the moon enters the penumbral stage at 3:52 p.m. and the umbral stage will begin at 4:50 p.m. It will end at 9:22 p.m.

"The totality will last for one and a half hours," PAGASA said, adding that during this period, the moon's color will change to a vivid red or orange.

A lunar eclipse takes place when the earth is between the sun and the moon so that the earth's shadow falls on the moon. The first total lunar eclipse of 2007 happened on March 4.
