Lunar Eclipse - Nov. 19, 2021 -- begins 2 a.m. Eastern

from Old Farmer's Almanac (almanac.com/)  

• The first dot of Earth’s shadow will start touching the Moon at 2:19 AM Eastern time. 
• 
  
• The Moon will be high in the sky. See when the Moon rises and sets in your location. You may see the Pleiades star cluster (the Seven Sisters) near the Moon.
   
• For the next hour and a half the Moon will get increasingly blacked out, until at very nearly 4:00 AM EST (or 1:00 AM PST), the eclipse will reach its maximum. So that’s the sweet spot, the early hours of Friday morning, November 19, with the Moon now lowish in the west and looking distinctly reddish since Earth casts a red shadow into space.

We’ll finally get the real deal.

AN ALMOST-TOTAL ECLIPSE IN 2021

This is a fabulously odd eclipse set to coincide with the full Beaver Moon. It’s technically a “partial lunar eclipse.” The Sun, the Earth, and Moon are lined up in almost-perfect alignment so that the Moon passes through the Earth’s shadow and turns dark. See all eclipses for 2021 and 2022—and eclipse definitions.

However, what’s unusual in the case of this partial eclipse is that it will be up to 97% covered by the Earth’s shadow—almost total! Don’t feel any disappointment that the Moon will not get totally 100% eclipsed. Sure, when it comes to solar eclipses, totality is everything. It’s super important because that’s when all the fantastic stuff happens. But not with the Moon.
