A total “BLOOD MOON”lunar eclipse is coming Nov. 8 @TheCosmosNews

#thecosmosnews A total lunar eclipse will occur across the country early on Tuesday, November 8, astronomers say. It s the first Election Day total lunar eclipse in U.S. history, according to EarthSky.org. And the next Election Day lunar eclipse won t occur for another 372 years, on Nov. 8, 2394. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the moon and the sun are on exact opposite sides of Earth, according to NASA. When this happens, Earth blocks the sunlight that normally reaches the moon. Instead of that sunlight hitting the moon’s surface, Earth s shadow falls on it. Where and when can you see the eclipse? Lunar eclipses can be visible from everywhere on the night side of the Earth, if the sky is clear, TimeandDate.com said. "From some places the entire eclipse will be visible, while in other areas the moon will rise or set during the eclipse." According to EarthSky s Bruce McClure, if you live in the U.S., or elsewhere in North America, you can see the eclipse in the wee hours before sunrise on November 8. In Washington, D.C., for example, the full eclipse will begin at 5:16 a.m. EST and end at 6:41 a.m. EST.A total lunar eclipse will sweep across Asia, Australia, the Americas and the Pacific on November 8, 2022.
