Lunar Eclipse Wednesday


Are you ready for tomorrow night's total lunar eclipse? If not, you'll have to wait until 2010 to see another episode. As you can see in NASA's picture above, the eclipse will begin around 8:45pm Wednesday evening and be total for nearly an hour beginning around 10pm. Often, depending on the conditions, the moon will turn reddish during the eclipse. See the chart below for future eclipses of the moon (click on it to make it bigger).
