Skywatchers across the world will witness the first total lunar eclipse in three years. Here’s who will have the best views—and what gives the moon its eerie red tint.

The moon will appear a striking reddish color in a few weeks when a magnificent total lunar eclipse becomes visible all across the United States.

On the night of March 13-14, 2025, all 50 U.S. states will witness a total lunar eclipse — the best “blood moon” until 2029. Totality will last 65 minutes.
