Here’s when you can see this weekend’s lunar eclipse in Michigan

A total lunar eclipse will take place late Sunday night (May 15) into early Monday (May 16).

People throughout much of the United States will be able to view a total lunar eclipse late Sunday night (May 15) into early Monday (May 16).

A partial lunar eclipse will be visible beginning at 10:15 p.m. ET, according to NASA. A full lunar eclipse will be visible beginning at 11:20 p.m. ET and stay visible until 12:54 a.m. ET. Then, the partial lunar eclipse will take place again and end at 2:20 a.m. ET.

You’ll be able to view the lunar eclipse wherever the moon is visible. Since Michigan is on ET, residents will be able to view the entire lunar eclipse. Likewise, most residents on the east coast will be able to see the entire lunar eclipse, while those on the west coast will only be able to see the lunar eclipse in progress.

The United States will see another total lunar eclipse in November. After that, we’ll have to wait a while, as the next lunar eclipse will take place in March 2025.

A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth finds itself directly in between the Sun and moon, according to NASA.
