Speaker 4: There will be a spectacle in the sky to see
Speaker 4: on Thursday and Friday, March thirteenth and fourteenth, a total
Speaker 4: lunar eclipse that will flush the moon a reddish orange color,

Speaker 4: the Earth is positioned exactly between the Moon and the Sun.
Speaker 4: The Earth blocks all direct sunlight from lighting up the
Speaker 4: Moon's surface. The eclipse is happening Thursday night into Friday morning,
Speaker 4: lasting a few hours. The blood moon portion will only
Speaker 4: be visible for about an hour, starting at two twenty
Speaker 4: six am Friday morning. Peak viewing will be close to
Speaker 4: three am. Now, unlike a solar eclipse, you don't need
Speaker 4: any special glasses to view a lunary eclipse. It's safe
Speaker 4: to see it with the naked eye, so just look
Speaker 4: up and if you have binoculars or a telescope, even better.
