<p>Millions of people have gazed skywards to witness the first total lunar eclipse for nearly three years.</p>
<p>The Moon started to move into the Earth&#8217;s shadow at 6.32am, on the day of the winter solstice.</p>
<p>The total eclipse began at 7.40am, with the moon close to the western horizon and in a rapidly brightening sky, and lasted for around 73 minutes.</p>
<p>From southern parts of the UK, the initial partial phase and the beginning of totality were visible, but the Moon dropped down into the western sky as dawn approached.</p>
<p>In Scotland and Northern Ireland, totality was entirely visible, but the Moon was low down in the sky.</p>
<p>During totality, the Moon moved through the northern part of the Earth&#8217;s dark umbral shadow, so the southern half appeared considerably darker than the northern part.</p>
