NIGHT owls and early birds might get a glimpse of an eclipse of the moon next week.

The moon will be partially eclipsed between 3.35am and 6.51am on Monday, January 21, with the total eclipse from 4.42am until 5.44am.

It's a supermoon, called the wolf moon, and the eclipse should cause a blood moon.

The celestial event, where the moon will line up with the Earth and the sun, will be seen across the UK and other parts of the Eastern hemisphere.

The moon will appeared 14 per cent bigger and 30 per cent brighter as it reaches its closest point to our planet.
