A Rare Total Lunar Eclipse Is Coming to Metro Atlanta Skies Tuesday Morning. Here's How You Can See It

The last total lunar eclipse until December 2028 will be visible without special equipment, lasting about one hour of totality, NASA said.

  • Millions of sky watchers will see a total lunar eclipse on March 3, across the Americas early morning and in Australia and eastern Asia Tuesday night, producing a blood-red Moon.
  • Because Earth will be positioned directly between the Sun and the full Moon, sunlight refracted through Earth's atmosphere bends red wavelengths onto the lunar surface, giving the Moon its deep reddish color.
  • NASA lists precise timing: the penumbral phase begins at 3:44 a.m. Eastern, totality starts at 6:04 a.m. Eastern, lasting about an hour, with visibility from 3:45 A.M. to 9:23 A.M. EST.
  • Observers need no special gear and simply require a clear sky, but Africa and Europe will be shut out, and East Coast U.S. viewers may lose the Moon before the eclipse ends.
  • This eclipse is especially rare because it will be the last total lunar eclipse until late 2028 and follows the February 17 'ring of fire' solar eclipse seen mainly from Antarctica.
