Total Lunar Eclipse
March 13 @ 9:00 pm - March 14 @ 1:30 am
All-ages, family-friendly
$25 General Admission, $15 Members.
Join Chabot astronomers for a live watch party of the magnificent Total Lunar Eclipse from Chabot’s Observation Deck. Bring your friends & family and a lawn chair to enjoy Eclipse-themed crafts and demonstrations, then get bundled up with a cup of hot cocoa to watch this stunning celestial show. Between 11:26 pm to 12:31 am, the peak of the Eclipse, The Moon will become totally engulfed in Earth’s dark umbral shadow, turning stunning shades of orange and red as the twilight glow of sunlight slips around the edges of Earth’s atmosphere and shines onto the Moon’s face.
The Total Lunar Eclipse event will proceed as scheduled, even in overcast or rainy weather. If the viewing conditions on the deck are not ideal, we’ll move the event indoors. We’ll be live streaming the eclipse indoors and offering engaging talks from our astronomers, along with fun activities for everyone to enjoy.
