HOLT, Fla., March 10, 2024—All of North America and Hawaii will be able to see a total lunar eclipse during tomorrow’s early morning hours.
This month’s full “Worm Moon” will also be a “Blood Moon” as the total eclipse turns the Moon a dusky red color.
Each full moon has a designated name that originated from Native American, Colonial American or other traditional North American names, according to The Old Farmer’s Almanac.
Last month’s full moon was the “Snow Moon.” Next month’s full moon will be the “Pink Moon.” The “Strawberry Moon” occurs in May.

Tonight’s lunar show begins with a partial eclipse at 12:09 a.m. as the Moon enters the outer edges of the Earth’s shadow, known as the penumbra.
As the Moon continues its trek across the sky, it will enter the Earth’s darker shadow, known as the umbra and begin its total eclipse phase. This happens at 1:26 a.m.
The Blood Moon occurs during maximum eclipse which is at 1:58 a.m. Total eclipse lasts for approximately 65 minutes.
Once the Moon starts to move out of the other side of the umbra, it becomes partially eclipsed again.
The whole event ends at 3:47 a.m.
The next total lunar eclipse for United States doesn’t occur again until 2026.
