Mike Watson13:27, May 25 2021 Leith Robertson/Stuff New Plymouth Astronomical Society president Leith Roberston took a photograph of the last total eclipse clearly seen from New Plymouth on January 31 2018, shortly before cloud cover obscured the view. Taranaki residents will have the chance to spot the first appearance of a super blood moon in 39 years late on Wednesday night. But they will need to be ready as the rare phenomenon will only last for 14 minutes. The region is among a number of areas in the country – mainly on the west coast of both islands – where clear skies are forecast. A super blood moon occurs only when three factors are in combination: a full moon, the Moon being closest to the Earth in its orbit (known as perigee​), and there is a total lunar eclipse, National Institute for Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) meteorologist Ben Noll said.
