Lunar Eclipse 2024 Moon And Sun. Annular eclipse of the sun. A lunar eclipse is a more potent full moon, and its effects tend to last longer — approximately six months.

The eclipse is expected to peak, meaning the obscuring of the sun by the moon’s shadow will be at its greatest, at 2:45 p.m. Those living in alaska will catch a glimpse of a total solar eclipse on march 30, 2033, and a partial solar eclipse will shine over most of the us during that event.
