The year's second total lunar eclipse is happening soon, with Asia having the best viewing experience. This weekend's full moon will be obscured by Earth's shadow as the planet aligns between the moon and the sun. Totality will last 1 hour and 22 minutes, with the entire event spanning over five hours. Unlike the March eclipse, visible in the Americas, this blood moon eclipse will be primarily visible in Asia, from Saudi Arabia to the Philippines, and parts of East Africa and Australia. Partial visibility is expected in other regions. A partial solar eclipse will follow two weeks later, visible from New Zealand, parts of Australia, and Antarctica.
