Total Lunar Eclipse Will Turn Moon Red: Blood Moon Viewing Guide
The eclipse will last from about 4 a.m. to 7 a.m. EST and requires no special equipment, NASA said, offering a rare skywatching event every 1.5 to 3 years.
- On March 3, NASA said a total lunar eclipse will be visible across North America, turning the Moon reddish in early morning hours.
- NASA explained that because Earth passes between the Sun and Moon, Earth's atmosphere filters sunlight, scattering blue light and leaving red wavelengths to illuminate the Moon.
- Expect the eclipse to start with a partial phase at 4:50 a.m., and reach totality at 6:04 a.m. ET, NASA explained.
- Skywatchers should note that Eastern Time Zone viewers may miss the full eclipse due to moonset, so clear western horizons and early alarms are advised.
- After the eclipse, Venus and Saturn will appear closer, and the next total lunar eclipse will be on December 20, 2029.
