Red Wolf Moon visible late Sunday night, early Monday

It’s called a red wolf moon.

It’s actually a full lunar eclipse. It happens Sunday night and it should be a site to behold.

During the full lunar eclipse, the Moon will turn a strange shade of red.

Experts from NASA say the eclipse happens when the Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon, and the Moon is then plunged into our planet’s shadow or “umbra.”

Scientists say the eclipse will begin a few minutes after 9:30 p.m. in the Midwest.

The eclipse will be in full totality  at 10:41 p.m. This is the main event, when the moon will be completely immersed in the Earth’s shadow. During this time, the blood moon will be visible, making the moon appear to be bright red.

The blood moon will last about an hour. It will then begin to brighten when the moon escapes Earth’s shadow and the eclipse ends.

This will be your last opportunity to see a total lunar eclipse visible in the U.S. until May 26, 2021.

If Mother Nature prevents you from seeing it due to cloud clover, be sure to search for it online.
