The only total lunar eclipse visible in the U.S. this year is set for the night of March 13. Lunar eclipses occur when Earth is positioned precisely between the Moon and the Sun during the full moon phase, according to NASA. During this time, Earth's shadow falls upon the surface of the Moon and dims it. Sometimes, the eclipse turns the lunar surface red for a few hours. In a total lunar eclipse, the entire Moon falls within the darkest part of Earth’s shadow, called the umbra, according to NASA.
