Safe to watch with the naked eye

A lunar eclipse needs no eye protection — you are looking at the Moon, not the Sun. Binoculars or a small telescope make the shadow's curved edge and the colours of totality far more vivid. Eye protection is only ever needed for solar eclipses →

Questions people ask

FAQ
Where is the 12 Jan 2028 lunar eclipse visible?
The Moon is up during the eclipse across Venezuela · United States · Cuba · Colombia · Panama · Canada · Brazil — unlike a solar eclipse there is no narrow path: everyone on the night side of Earth sees the same eclipse at the same instant. From Mexico City the Moon is 54° above the horizon at maximum.
What time is the 12 Jan 2028 lunar eclipse in Mexico City?
The partial (umbral) phase begins at 21:43 GMT-6, maximum is at 22:13 GMT-6 and the Moon leaves the umbra at 22:42 GMT-6 (all times Mexico City local). The instants are the same worldwide; only the local clock time differs.
Do I need eclipse glasses for a lunar eclipse?
No. A lunar eclipse is completely safe to watch with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope — you are looking at the Moon, not the Sun. Eye protection is only for SOLAR eclipses.
How much of the Moon is eclipsed?
At maximum about 3% of the Moon's disc sits inside Earth's dark umbra — the umbral phase lasts 58m 16s.
When is the next eclipse?
The next eclipse is the partial lunar eclipse of 28 Aug 2026. Orbital Radar tracks it live at https://orbitalradar.com/eclipse/2026-august-28-lunar.
