When and How to See Total Lunar Eclipse

Many of these events reward a little preparation: a clear sky, a dark spot away from city lights, and good timing. Eclipses and meteor showers are visible only from certain regions or at certain hours, so it is worth checking visibility for your location. A countdown ensures you set aside the evening before the moment passes — some of these events will not repeat for years.
