Total Lunar Eclipse to Grace the Skies Tonight

The rare celestial event, visible in parts of France and the Americas, will feature a 'Blood Moon' during its totality phase.

A total lunar eclipse will occur tonight, March 13–14, with the Moon appearing red during its totality, often referred to as a 'Blood Moon.'
The event will be visible in its entirety from regions such as the Americas, the Antilles, and parts of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
In mainland France, only partial phases of the eclipse will be visible early in the morning, with the totality phase beginning at 7:26 AM local time but mostly obscured by the Moon setting.
Observers in the Antilles will have the best viewing conditions, with the entire eclipse visible from start to finish under ideal skies.
The phenomenon occurs when the Earth aligns between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow that filters sunlight through Earth's atmosphere, creating the Moon's reddish hue.
