A rare, long-duration lunar eclipse is happening early Friday, if you’re up for it

The sun, earth, and moon will be nearly perfectly aligned in such a way that earth’s shadow will cover nearly the entire moon for several hours.

A partial lunar eclipse will occur during the pre-dawn hours on Nov. 19, 2021, when the moon will officially be at its fullest phase. Here is a view of the Super Blood Wolf Moon eclipse on Jan. 20, 2019.
