'Twill be nights before Christmas and high overhead,
the moon will burn brown or maybe deep red.
The Earth and the sun with celestial scripts
will conspire to make a lunar eclipse.
North and Central America and a tiny sliver of South America will get the best view of this year's only total eclipse of the moon. It begins here at 2:41 a.m. Tuesday. Western Europe will only see the start of it, and western Asia will catch the tail end. The entire show is expected to last 3 1/2 hours.
