Last year, sky watchers reveled in the spectacle of a total solar eclipse darkening the sky
00:10
over North America.
00:12
This year, a total lunar eclipse will hover in the same skies on the night of March 13-14.
00:19
During a total lunar eclipse, Earth is aligned between the sun and the moon.
00:23
Earth casts its shadow directly over the moon, which completely covers it.
00:28
It interacts with Earth's atmosphere, which then is reflected on the moon, causing our
00:32
natural satellite to appear red.
00:35
If you want to see the eclipse for yourself, be prepared to stay up all night because the
00:38
eclipse doesn't begin until 1.09 a.m. Eastern Time, and totality will last from 2.26 to
00:45
3.31 Eastern Time.
00:48
All of North America and South America will be able to view the total lunar eclipse, and
00:52
it'll also be visible briefly from New Zealand, Western Europe, and Western Africa.
00:57
Just remember that the eclipse is visible as long as there are no clouds out, so be
01:01
sure to check the weather forecast before you head outside and especially before you
01:05
pull an all-nighter.
01:06
You can do so by visiting AccuWeather.com or by downloading the AccuWeather app.
