NORTH AMERICA — Heads up! A Total Lunar Eclipse will be visible across North and South America Thursday and Friday.
Earth will move directly between the sun and the Moon, blocking sunlight and casting a shadow over the lunar surface. You will see a reddish hue to the Moon during this time.
Here is when you can view the peak event of totality, which lasts for about 65 minutes:
Eastern Time (ET): 2:26 AM – 3:31 AM (Mar 14)
Central Time (CT): 1:26 AM – 2:31 AM (Mar 14)
Mountain Time (MT): 12:26 AM – 1:31 AM (Mar 14)
Pacific Time (PT): 11:26 PM (March 13) – 12:31 AM (Mar 14)
Alaska Time (AKT): 10.26 pm (March 13) – 11:31 pm (March 13)
Hawaii Time (HST): 8:26 PM – 9:31 PM (Mar 13)
The next total lunar eclipse will be about a year from now – March 3, 2026. This will favor the west coast which will see the entire eclipse.
