March is known for heralding the start of spring. This year, the month also kicks off eclipse season. Stargazers in North America will be able to catch a total lunar eclipse in mid-March, while a partial solar eclipse on March 29 will be visible to those in northeastern North America and parts of Europe and northwest Africa.
The upcoming total lunar eclipse will occur at night from March 13 to the morning of March 14. This type of eclipse happens when the Earth is perfectly aligned between the moon and the sun, which causes our planet to cast a shadow completely over the moon. Eclipses usually last a few hours, but totality typically lasts 30 minutes to over an hour.
