re: Eclipse:
"NASA said the partial shadow will first appear on the upper left part of the moon at 1:02 a.m. EST Friday (10:02 p.m. PST Thursday). But the dimming won't be noticeable until 2:18 a.m. EST when the full shadow of Earth falls on the upper part of the moon.
The peak of the eclipse happens at three hours later at 4:03 a.m. EST (1:03 a.m. PST). The moon will leave full shadow at 5:47 a.m. EST and will be completely out of Earth's shadow at 7:03 a.m. EST, about three minutes before it sets.
That nearly 3 1/2 hours between 2:18 and 5:47 a.m. EST will be the longest partial lunar eclipse between Feb. 18, 1440, and Feb. 8, 2669, according to Sky & Telescope."
