A Rare Spectacle: March’s Worm Moon to Shine in a Breathtaking Total Lunar Eclipse
Skywatchers, get ready! A dazzling celestial event is about to unfold this week as March’s Worm Moon transforms into a Blood Moon in a rare total lunar eclipse—the first of its kind in over two years.
And for the first time in three years, all 50 states will have a front-row seat to this mesmerizing cosmic display as the Sun, Earth, and Moon align perfectly, casting our planet’s shadow over the lunar surface. If you love stargazing, this is one night you don’t want to miss!
When to Look Up: Timing of the Total Lunar Eclipse
Mark your calendars and set your alarms! The total lunar eclipse will unfold overnight on Thursday and into early Friday, peaking in the early morning hours of March 14.
- The eclipse officially begins at 11:57 p.m. ET on Thursday, March 13.
- It will reach totality—when the Moon is fully eclipsed—at 2:59 a.m. ET on Friday, March 14.
- North America will start seeing the eclipse around 12:55 a.m. ET.
- The entire event will last over three and a half hours, according to the National Weather Service.
As the Moon passes through Earth’s shadow, it will take on a stunning reddish hue—an effect caused by our atmosphere filtering out blue light and allowing only red and orange wavelengths to reach the lunar surface. This is why we call it a Blood Moon—a hauntingly beautiful sight.
Why You Shouldn’t Miss This Eclipse
Lunar eclipses aren’t just a spectacle—they’re a reminder of the vast, mysterious dance of the cosmos. Unlike solar eclipses, lunar eclipses are completely safe to view with the naked eye. So grab a blanket, find a dark spot away from city lights, and let yourself be awed by the wonders of space.
This will be the last total lunar eclipse visible across the entire U.S. for a while, so don’t miss your chance to witness this celestial masterpiece!
