The eclipse will take place in the early hours of Tuesday, Nov. 8, and will be the last total lunar eclipse until March 14, 2025, NASA reported.

As the moon passes into the Earth's shadow, it will appear to turn a red hue, which is why these eclipses are sometimes referred to as "Blood Moons," NASA said. 

NASA reported that the moon will begin to subtly dim at 3:02 a.m. EST.

The partial eclipse will begin at 4:09 a.m., and the totality will begin at 5:17 a.m. Tuesday, NASA said.
