TL;DR Summary

This weekend, a partial lunar eclipse, also known as a Blood Moon, will occur, where the Earth will appear to take a "bite" out of the Moon. The eclipse will be visible from various regions around the world and will last for about 4 hours and 25 minutes, with the peak phase lasting around 1 hour and 17 minutes. Although it won't be a proper Blood Moon, as the Moon won't appear red, it coincides with October's Full Moon, also known as the Hunter's Moon or Blood Moon in some cultures.
