If the skies are clear after sunset on Sunday, Sept. 27 and you live in the Americas, head outside and witness the last total lunar eclipse until 2018. Or better yet, pop some popcorn, stay warm and cozy and watch the eclipse with HNGN!
The moon will be at perigree (the closest point to the Earth), so the moon will appear 13 percent larger than the last eclipse in April, according to a press release from Sky & Telescope. Easterners have the best view and can see the eclipse during every stage. Those in the west will see the eclipse as it starts its progression. South America can check it out later in the night and those in Europe and Africa will get a peek in the early morning of Monday, Sept. 28.
