INDIANA— Turn your eyes to the sky tonight for an extra particular full moon.
The harvest moon, or the closest full moon to the autumnal equinox, will also be a supermoon, appearing larger and brighter in the night sky. There will also be a partial lunar eclipse.
The full moon and lunar eclipse will be tonight and into Wednesday morning.
According to NASA, the lunar eclipse will begin when the moon enters the Earth’s partial shadow at 8:41 p.m. EDT. Still, it won’t be easy to notice until the top edge of the moon begins entering the complete shadow at 10:13 p.m. EDT, according to NASA.
The eclipse’s peak will occur at 10:44 p.m. with eight percent of the moon in the Earth’s complete shadow, appearing like a bite has been taken out of the moon. The moon will exit the complete shadow at 11:16 p.m. and the partial shadow at 12:47 a.m. Eastern Time.
