On Thursday and Friday, skywatchers will get to experience a nearly total lunar eclipse—but what you see will depend on where in the world you live.
The partial lunar eclipse— which NASA described as “almost total”—will be the longest for a century, lasting 3 hours, 28 minutes, and 23 seconds.
NASA explains on its website why this is an almost total eclipse: “A lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align so that the Moon passes into Earth’s shadow.
