GridHot.ID – phenomenon total lunar eclipse peringe (Super Blood Moon) can be re-witnessed on 26 May 2021.
This phenomenon can be witnessed in almost all regions Indonesia, except in a small part of Riau, except in a small part of Riau, a small part of West Sumatra, North Sumatra and Aceh.
“Except in a small part of Riau, a small part of West Sumatra, North Sumatra, and Aceh,” said the Head of the Sub-Division for Potential Geophysical Analysis and Time Signs of the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) Suaidi Ahadi on Monday (24/5/2021), as quoted Gridhot from Kompas.com.
In addition to the total peringe lunar eclipse phenomenon, on May 16, 2021, the sun will also be directly above the Kaaba.
Launching Serambinewas.com, the two incidents were 27 minutes apart.
Where according to BMKG data, if on May 26, 2021 it is exactly 16.18 WlB, the sun will be directly above the Ka’bah.
About 27 minutes later, at 16.45.19 WIB, according to the results of the study of astronomy, a total lunar eclipse began.

Malikussaleh BMKG document
–
To strengthen the description above, on Saturday (22/5/2121), through the whatshapp group Info BMKG Malikussaleh BMKG Malikussaleh Meteorological Station Aceh Utara, there was a picture related to information on the position of the sun right above the Ka’bah.
This image informs how to easily check the position of the Qibla.
The description of the picture, the sun on Wednesday (26/5/2021) to Friday (28/5/2021), will be above the Ka’bah. The peak is at 16.18 WIB.
Then it will be an opportunity for Muslims to check the Qibla direction again by means of a very simple manual.
How to check the Qibla direction simply according to the information via the whatshapp BMKG Malikussaleh Info group.
First, the clock used corresponds to the BMKG atomic clock at http://jam.bmkg.go.id or at http://ntp.bmkg.go.id
Then use a tool that can be made perpendicular to a flat surface.
The tool can be a pendulum, a pole, or a building wall that is perpendicular to the flat ground.
Then do the calibration process from five minutes before and after 16.18 WIB or 17.18 WITA (peak time).
After that, pay attention to the direction of the shadow at the peak time.
Drag a line from the edge of the shadow to the position of the tool.
This line is the direction of the Qibla which has been calibrated with the position of the sun when it is directly above the Ka’bah.
This condition will continue to repeat every year on May 26-28 and July 14-16.
While the results of the study of astronomy, according to what was stated by the lecturer of phalanges in the Department of Islamic Astronomy, Sharia Faculty, IAIN Lhokseumawe, Tgk Ismail Is, some time ago, a total lunar eclipse will occur on May 26, 2021 AD to coincide with the full moon night of 15 Shawwal 1442 H starting at 16.45.19 WIB until 19.51.41 WIB.
Judging from the BMKG data above, under the peak of the sun’s position above the Ka’bah on May 26, 2021 at 16.18 WIB, then 27 minutes later or at 16.45 .19 WIB, according to astronomical studies, there will be a total lunar eclipse.
Total Lunar Eclipse Observations
According to the Lecturer of Phalanges in the Department of Islamic Astronomy, Faculty of Sharia, IAIN Lhokseumawe, Tgk Ismail Isz, said that during this total month, IAIN Lhokseumawe will join virtual observations with 20 observation points throughout Indonesia.

This virtual observation program is through the Zoom Meeting application facilitated by the Jakarta Planetarium & Observatory and the observation program can be seen directly on the Jakarta Planetarium & Observatory youtube channel from 15.45 to 21.30 WIB.
This virtual observation will be very useful for the community Indonesia, where the eclipse conditions of the 20 observation points at Indonesia will be displayed in one channel.
These 20 dots represent the region Indonesia, starting at the western end Indonesia there is the Tgk Chik Kuta Observatory Karang Lhoknga Banda Aceh, the Malikussaleh Observatory IAIN Lhokseumawe, the Observatory Astronomy UMSU Medan, to the easternmost area Indonesia in Biak.
