Southern California’s Blood Moon Eclipse | San Diego News

If you’re on the West Coast, especially Southern California, you might’ve caught a stunning partial lunar eclipse Thursday night — the moon turned a dramatic coppery red, peaking at 9:12 PM. While clouds and fog threatened views in San Diego, clear skies rewarded stargazers across the Americas, Europe, and Africa. This eclipse belongs to Saros 138, with the next one not until September 7, 2044. For the best view, head to certified dark sky spots like Julian or Borrego Springs — or even Palomar Observatory — where city lights won’t steal the show. A cosmic reminder that nature’s grand theater still plays above us, even if the timing’s not always perfect. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
