Full Moon Eclipse

Mark Your Calendar for a Spectacular Lunar Show!moon

On the evening of March 13, the skies will host an extraordinary celestial event: a total lunar eclipse. 

In the Chicago area at precisely 10:57 p.m., the Earth’s shadow will begin to envelop the moon, painting it in mesmerizing shades of deep red—a phenomenon often called the "Blood Moon."

Unlike a solar eclipse, no special glasses are needed to enjoy this breathtaking sight. Totality will last until 2:31 a.m., and the eclipse will conclude at 3:47 a.m.

Whether you're an avid stargazer or just curious, don't miss this chance to witness one of nature's most dramatic displays. 

Grab a blanket, find a cozy spot under the stars, and enjoy the show!
