Curious about an early-morning astronomical event? 🌙 Weather permitting, a lunar eclipse will begin with a partial phase around 2:00 am tomorrow, followed by the total eclipse — the “Blood Moon” — from 5:04 am to 6:02 am, visible in the western sky. It’s a beautiful reminder that natural phenomena sparks curiosity and learning.
