A Supermoon and Lunar Eclipse Will Light Up and Darken Tuesday’s Night Sky

Published

on

The night sky on Tuesday will treat us to a partial lunar eclipse during a supermoon.

It’s an astronomical wonder that almost anyone in the Western Hemisphere under clear skies can experience, and it’s the latest reminder that our home planet is part of a bigger cosmic system.

When is the lunar eclipse, and where can I see it?

This lunar eclipse will happen between 8:41 p.m. Eastern time on Tuesday and 12:47 a.m.on Wednesday, with the maximum partial phase occurring at 10:44 p.m.

It will be visible across most of the United States, Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean, Africa and Europe.

 

Bruce Betts, the chief scientist at the Planetary Society, will be watching the show from his front yard in Pasadena, Calif.

 

Eclipses offer a chance to feel “the three-dimensional nature of everything,” Dr. Betts said. “It’s something that just in a visceral way is like, wow.”
