Listen as I read the passage. Moon goes blood red this weekend. Eclipse for the Americas A total lunar eclipse will grace the night skies this weekend, providing longer than usual thrills for stargazers across North and South America. The celestial action unfolds Sunday night into early Monday morning, with the moon bathed in the reflected red and orange hues of Earth's sunsets and sunrises. For about one and a half hours, one of the longest totalities of the decade. It will be the first so-called blood moon in a year. Observers in the eastern half of North America and all of Central and South America will have prime seats for the whole show, weather permitting. Partial stages of the eclipse will be visible across Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. Left out, Alaska, Asia, and Australia. This is really an eclipse for the Americas, said NASA's Noah Petro, a planetary geologist who specializes in the moon. It's going to be a treat. First three blanks, you'll have 15 seconds.
