Mays full moon,, called the flower moon will experience a lunar eclipse, unfortunately we will not be able to see this eclipse Friday but if you'll go to:

You can view it via them. Enjoy!!


On Friday (May 5) at 11:15 a.m. EDT (1515 GMT), a lunar eclipse will begin as the moon enters the outer edge of Earth's shadow. This particular type of lunar eclipse is known as penumbral, meaning skywatchers will be able to see the face of the moon darken without completely disappearing. The event will reach its peak at 1:24 p.m. EDT (1724 GMT), some two hours after beginning, and end at 3:32 p.m. EDT (1932 GMT) as the Earth's shadow leaves the moon once again.

Oh Winnie, none of us will see it with the visible eye, just east Africa, Australia, Oceania, Asia, etc. We can view it via this site beginning at 2:45 pm. :)
