Late tonight we may be able to see an eclipse of the moon, if the clouds cooperate.

If the sky is clear, you will be able see the full moon pass through the Earth's shadow, creating a blood red moon. It will be visible across Central and North America over a three and a half hour period.

You'll be able to watch it starting just before midnight.

NASA has set up a camera that will air the eclipse live from Alabama. You can watch that video and take part in a live chat by clicking here.
