Lunar eclipse

A total lunar eclipse occurred on Tuesday, March 3, 2026, tinting the Moon reddish in a phenomenon known as the 'Blood Moon', visible for about an hour from East Asia to Central and North America. In Mexico, the event began around 2:45 AM in Mexico City, while in Tokyo it was partially obscured by clouds. The NASA and the American Astronomical Society explain that this happens when Earth positions itself between the Sun and the Moon.
