There apparently won't be a lot to see on the East Coast, better further west and apparently according to one article, best in Hawaii.

Just enough time to book a trip.

Note: This total eclipse is central. That means the moon passes centrally through the axis of Earth’s dark (umbral) shadow. The moon is in a near part of its orbit – close to Earth – during the eclipse. It’s a supermoon.

Because they are so deep, such eclipses typically have the longest total phases. In this case, the duration of totality lasts almost an hour and a half: 84.9 minutes!

I just got a email from a friend with a link to a doom and gloom apocalypse site. Apparently this blood moon is the end of us!

I wonder why the last one wasn’t?. :lol:
