I don't know much about lunar eclipses but it says that only the east half of North America will be able to see the total eclipse so I don't know if we would be able to see a partial but it would be interesting to get the kids out to see on Saturday night! Good astronomy lesson as to why only certain parts of the world can see it!--Tabbi

TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE: Set aside some time this weekend for sky watching. On Saturday night, March 3rd, there's going to be a total eclipse of the Moon. This means the Moon will glide through the heart of Earth's shadow and turn a beautiful shade of sunset red. Totality can be seen from parts of all seven continents including all of Europe and Africa and the eastern half of North America.
