Mark your calendars, sky watchers: In one week a total lunar eclipse will turn the moon an eerie shade of red.
On April 14, at 10:58 p.m. PDT, the moon will move into Earth's shadow. The full lunar eclipse -- when the entirety of the moon is shaded by Earth -- begins just over an hour later at 12:07 a.m. and lasts until 1:25 a.m. PDT.
