The second total lunar eclipse of 2014 will light up the sky across a vast swathe of the world on October 8.

The entire "total" phase of the eclipse would be visible across all but a narrow strip of the East Coast.

The eclipse would begin at 4:15 a.m. Central Daylight Time, when the Moon first touches Earth's dark inner shadow. It'll be fully immersed in the shadow about an hour later, beginning the total eclipse.

The western U.S., including Alaska and Hawaii, would see the whole thing. The Moon would set while the eclipse would be in progress as seen from the eastern half of the country.
