Watch along with us. Total lunar eclipse has all eyes on the skies. Partial eclipse begins.. NASA to provide commentary beginning at 10 p.m.

9:28 p.m. - Partial eclipse begins12:56 p.m. - partial eclipse endsA total eclipse occurs when the full moon enters the Earth’s umbra. Umbra is Latin for shadow. This is the innermost and darkest part of the Earth’s shadow, where light from the sun is completely blocked. This is the point the moon turns a blood red. It will be visible in all of North America. Totality lasts 85 minutes.The reason the moon changes to a reddish color is because of the Earth’s atmosphere.

This is a picture I took of the Jan. 31, 2018, total lunar eclipse. It’s also the last time the entire United States saw a total eclipse. It’s a good example how to our naked eye the red color of the moon is breathtaking. But our mobile phones do not capture this event well. While not needed, binoculars and telescopes enhance the view of the moon.My all time favorite Lunar Eclipse photo was taken by professional photographer Mike Mezeul. There isn’t a much more Texas moon picture than this.

Late Sunday night, May 15, if the skies aren’t too cloudy we’ll be able to see a total lunar eclipse. The time to look along the southern skyline is between 10:29 p.m. and 11:54 p.m.
