Dr. Gad El Kady, the Director of the National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics (NRIAG), said, Thursday, that Egypt won't be observed in Egypt. 

Tomorrow, the moon will pass into Earth's outer shadow, creating a rare astronomical phenomenon, a penumbral eclipse.

During the sky event, the moon would be darker, not completely disappear. 

It will be visible in Antarctica, Asia, Russia, Oceania, and eastern and central Africa.

 The rare sky event will kick off at 1:24 p.m. EST. and will end at 3:32 pm, EST when the moon appears from Earth's shadow, according to space.
