March 3, 2026 ‘Worm Blood Moon’ Eclipse Visibility Details

On March 2-3, 2026, a total lunar eclipse, commonly referred to as a 'Blood Moon,' will captivate skywatchers across North America, the Pacific, Australia, and East Asia, while being invisible in Europe and Africa. The totality phase, where the Moon turns a deep red due to Earth's shadow, will last approximately 58 minutes, peaking at 11:33 UTC. This event is particularly significant as it is the last total lunar eclipse until 2028, making it a rare opportunity for enthusiasts and casual observers alike. As noted by Nature World News, 'This total lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align precisely, allowing sunlight to filter through Earth's atmosphere,' resulting in the characteristic red hue of the Moon during totality.
