This Map Shows Where Thursday Night’s Lunar Eclipse Can Be Seen
Nearly 1 billion people in the Americas can see the full event, and the Moon will be 96% covered at peak, astronomers said.

- Nearly 1 billion people in the Americas will see the entire eclipse, while a NASA database shows the next partial lunar eclipse visible from this region occurs Jan. 11, 2028.
