Partial Lunar Eclipse Early Friday Morning

Wednesday, November 17th, 2021 -- 9:11 AM

The next eclipse of the moon will greet early risers before dawn this Friday morning across North America.

It will be the second lunar eclipse of 2021 and, in some ways, will be similar to the last one on May 26. Most North Americans will again need to get up early and look low in the west toward daybreak. The so-called “beaver moon” will be reaching its fullest phase — shortly before 3 a.m.

It will be the longest partial lunar eclipse in 580 years, lasting just over 6 hours.
