A blood moon is coming. The entirety of the lower 48 states, the greater Americas, and some regions beyond will witness — weather permitting — a total lunar eclipse the night of March 13 and into the early morning of March 14.

March 2025 will offer a rare celestial spectacle, but unfortunately, viewers in India will miss out. On March 14, 2025, the first lunar eclipse of the year will take place, offering an extraordinary sight for skywatchers in parts of North and South America, and select regions of North Africa.
