Near-Total Lunar Eclipse Will Turn Moon Blood Red

Thursday, August 27, 2026


A near-total lunar eclipse will be visible from the Americas, Africa, and Europe, during which Earth's shadow will darken the moon. During a lunar eclipse of this magnitude, the moon typically appears reddish due to light refraction through Earth's atmosphere. The specific date and viewing times for this eclipse have not been provided in the available information.
