Lunar eclipse: How and when to watch Tuesday's blood moon in Australia

"For instance, moonrise in Brisbane is at 6.01pm so the Moon will have been in the sky for more than an hour before the eclipse starts," Dr Hill told ABC News.
"Whereas in more southern places, like Melbourne, for example, the Moon doesn’t rise until 7:53pm, so the Moon will be very low to the horizon."
It's not all amiss for those in southern states because a moon low to the horizon has the benefit of the 'moon illusion' which will make the lunar eclipse appear much larger due to its proximity to objects on the horizon.
