How to See the Total Lunar Eclipse and Blood Moon This Month​

Astronomy lovers in America will be treated to a great show in this month. In the early morning of March 14, a total lunar eclipse will be visible. During this phenomenon, the moon won’t disappear from view but will appear deep red as if it were covered in blood.
