Total Lunar Eclipse to Grace the U.S. Sky for the First Time Since 2022

For the first time in over two years, a total lunar eclipse—often called a “blood moon”—will be visible as the Earth moves directly between the sun and the moon. This celestial event will unfold later this week, offering a spectacular sight across the United States.

When to Watch the Total Lunar Eclipse

The eclipse will begin late Thursday night and extend into the early hours of Friday morning. For viewers in North America, the event will start at approximately 12:55 a.m. ET. According to the National Weather Service, the total eclipse will last for more than three and a half hours.

Unlike a total solar eclipse, which can only be seen from specific locations, this total lunar eclipse will be visible across all of the lower 48 states, making it an accessible and breathtaking experience for skywatchers nationwide.
