Did you catch the lunar eclipse above SoCal Tuesday night?

Topline:

On Tuesday night, not only were we privy to the second supermoon this summer (brighter and larger than normal), but to a partial lunar eclipse as well. However, in L.A. may have had to squint because only about 3.5% of the moon's surface was blackened here by the Earth's umbra, or the darkest part of its shadow.

How to watch: Just look up. No glasses were needed.

The timing: The moon rose over Southern California at 6:52 p.m., and you saw the largest bite taken out of it at 7:44 p.m. The bite disappeared by 8:15 p.m. and the moon fully brightened by 9:48 p.m. when it was no longer in the Earth's shadow.

What's next: A total lunar eclipse will be visible from Southern California on March 13, 2025 at about 11:58 p.m. The next supermoon will be visible on October 17, 2024.
