The eclipse is set to take place on the night of Thursday, March 13, into the early hours of Friday, March 14.

Late on Thursday night and into the early hours of Friday, the full moon turned a beautiful reddish color as it drifted through Earth’s shadow in a total lunar eclipse.

As the moon reflects the sun's light, the shadow dims the moon's glow. During the peak of a total lunar eclipse, the moon takes on a bit of a reddish hue as any leftover sunlight making it to the moon's surface is scattered by our earth's atmosphere.
