A total lunar eclipse will occur across the country early on Tuesday, November 8, astronomers say. The eclipse will last nearly 1 1/2 hours. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Earth and Moon align, so the Moon passes into the Earth's shadow. When the Moon is within the Earth's shadow, or umbra, it turns an eerie reddish hue, a blood moon.
November's full moon is traditionally known as the Beaver Moon, according to Space.com, because beavers are preparing for winter. Accordingly, this month's sky show is known as the Beaver Moon eclipse.Path the moon will follow during lunar eclipse At the center of the umbra, 100% of the moon’s face will be covered by the Earth's dark shadow. The next total eclipse won't happen until March 14, 2025.During a lunar eclipse, which is when the Earth lines up exactly between the moon and the sun, the moon appears darker because the Earth obscures the sun. Only light from Earth’s atmosphere reaches the moon, which can tint the moon red with light reflected from sunsets and sunrises on Earth.
According to EarthSky's Bruce McClure, if you live in the U.S., or elsewhere in North America, you can see the eclipse in the wee hours before sunrise on November 8.
