BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, May 18 (Borneo Bulletin/ANN): The Brunei public will be able to witness a rare total lunar eclipse on May 26, the first total eclipse in the country since July 2018.

The eclipse will come with a Supermoon bonus, where the full moon appears a little bigger and brighter due to its closer (perigee) position to the Earth during its orbit, said Astronomical Society of Brunei Darussalam (PABD) in a statement.
