A total lunar eclipse known as a “blood moon” will appear around the world on Tuesday, Nov. 8, coming hours after polls open across the United States for the midterm elections.
The space phenomenon will be visible to viewers in North America, Central America, Asia, Australia, some Pacific islands, and in portions of South America. In the United States, the eclipse will start Tuesday at 3:02 a.m. ET or 12:02 a.m. PT, according to NASA’s website.
