'Blood Moon' Lunar eclipse Thursday night

Eric Gustafson, Senior Educator at the St Louis Science Center/McDonnell Planetarium explains why we'll be able to see a lunar eclipse on the night of August 27. The Science Center will welcome visitors to view the eclipse which starts around 9:30 with the maximum (96%) will be near 11:10pm Central. The gases surrounding Earth actually create the reddish color, known as a Blood Moon. The next total Lunar eclipse is set for 2029 that will be seen in the US. (Photo by Ezra Acayan Getty Images)
