Don't miss this rare Blood Moon eclipse

• Totality — when the Moon is entirely within Earth's shadow — is set to occur between 1:26am and 2:31am Friday, per NASA.

🌕 What to expect: The Moon will take on a deep red-orange hue, a phenomenon often referred to as a "Blood Moon."

• This coloration results from Earth's atmosphere filtering out shorter-wavelength blue light, leaving the longer-wavelength red and orange light to illuminate the Moon, according to the Adler Planetarium. ​
• "It's as if all the world's sunrises and sunsets are projected onto the Moon," NASA writes.

🔭 How to see it: No special equipment is required, but binoculars or a telescope will enhance the view.

• It's supposed to be a cloudy night, but you might still be able to spot the moon.
