Total Lunar Eclipse of the moon March 13-14

Thursday night March 13th and into the morning of Friday, March 14th as most of North America is asleep, the Full Worm Moon slides into the Earth's shadow producing a spectacular total lunar eclipse. The orange tint on the moon's surface during totality is refracted sunlight passing through Earth's atmosphere, much like we see beautiful red sunsets. Here is the schedule for your time zone.

The Backyard Astronomer, Gary Boyle says in our area the lunar eclipse of the Full Worm Moon begins at 1:09 a.m. on March 14th and ends at 4:47 a.m.
