A total eclipse of the Moon will be visible to everyone in North and South America on the night of March 13 to 14, 2025.  (March 14th is often celebrated as Pi Day and is also Einstein’s birthday!)

Total eclipses of the Moon are very democratic -- perfectly safe to look at and not requiring any special equipment to see.  The unfortunate thing is that many parts of the country will see the eclipse in the middle of the night – which might lead to some very tired co-workers or students coming in the next morning.

A full information sheet, written by astronomer Andrew Fraknoi, with eclipse times for each time zone, can be found at: http://bit.ly/2025eclipse

Special Note: An eclipse of the Moon from Earth can be seen as an eclipse of the Sun (by the Earth) from the Moon.  Normally, there is no one on the Moon to see such an eclipse.   But now there is!

Firefly Aerospace (a private company) has landed its Blue Ghost capsule on the surface of the Moon and it is taking good pictures.  From their website, it appears that the Firefly group  is aware of the eclipse and planning to take images of it from the Moon.
