When Is the Next Lunar Eclipse?
The next Lunar eclipse on Earth is not always the next one visible from where you are. Eclipse visibility depends on your location, so the dates below answer both questions: when the next eclipse occurs anywhere in the world, and when you can see one from your selected location.
