On August 28 the moon enters the Earth's full shadow, or umbra, at 4:51 a.m. EDT (1:51 a.m. PDT). It enters the total-eclipse phase at 5:32 EDT (2:52 PDT) and the event ends after sunrise on the East coast and at 4:22 a.m. PDT.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the earth gets between the sun and the moon, blocking the light that would normally reflects off the moon.
The eclipse, weather permitting, should be visible across most of the country.

I think I might be up at that hour, maybe I can see a little of it. Thanks for the reminder.
