March 3 Blood Moon: Total Lunar Eclipse Graces U.S. Skies at Dawn

On March 3, a total lunar eclipse—often called a Blood Moon—will be visible across the United States in the early morning, with totality peaking between 6:04 and 7:03 a.m. ET. The eclipse runs from 3:44 a.m. to 9:23 a.m. ET, and the Moon will appear copper-red during totality. The event is viewable with the naked eye, with binoculars or a telescope enhancing detail; best viewing is where the Moon is higher in the sky, particularly in the western U.S.
