Lunar Eclipse Lights Up Night Skies | Dallas News

Get ready for a cosmic spectacle: a deep lunar eclipse hitting Thursday night into Friday, covering nearly 96% of the moon in Earth’s shadow. Visible across North and South America, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East (weather permitting), this is the second lunar eclipse of 2024 and the fourth eclipse overall — and the next total lunar eclipse visible from the Americas won’t arrive until 2029. With NASA’s Artemis II mission recently flying by the moon and astronauts buzzing about the momentum of space exploration, it’s a thrilling time to witness the universe’s grand show. Peak viewing is just after midnight Eastern Time, and while it won’t be a full “blood moon,” it’s still an awe-inspiring event you won’t want to miss.
