Don't Miss the Lunar Eclipse Tonight!

Tonight there will be a lunar eclipse! How cool is that? Most of our country will be able to view it! So, if you want more info on this awesome show, click here!

The main event begins at 9:01 p.m. ET, when the moon is completely covered by the darkest part of Earth's shadow. That translates to 8:01 p.m. CT, 7:01 p.m. MT and 6:01 p.m. PT. The total phase of the eclipse lasts 51 minutes, and the moon starts coming out of the darkest shadow, or umbra, at 9:52 p.m. ET. (taken from above link)
