About eclipses
A lunar eclipse is visible from the entire night side of Earth — no equipment needed — as the Moon passes through Earth's shadow, often turning deep red. A solar eclipse is only visible along a narrow path where the Moon's shadow falls, and requires certified eye protection to view safely. These dates are computed with NASA-grade astronomy models.
