Take a work from home break tonight and head out to watch the lunar eclipse. Here in the US, it will be at a rather convenient time, starting just after 9 p.m. Eastern and total eclipse happening between 10:01 and 10:51. This is a great time to see the moon covered by Earth’s shadow, turning it red and possibly even allowing some to see it as turquoise. National Geographic reports on the lunar eclipse:
"It’s very well placed for the U.S.," said Fred Espenak, an
astrophysicist and eclipse expert at the NASA Goddard Space Flight
Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
