Quick answers
What time is the lunar eclipse on February 11, 2036?
The Earth’s dark shadow starts to cross the Moon at 20:30 UTC; the Moon is wholly inside it from 21:34 UTC to 22:49 UTC, and clear of it at 23:53 UTC. It happens at the same instant for everyone: only the clock on the wall differs.
How long is the Moon totally eclipsed?
For 1 h 15 min. With the partial phases before and after, the Earth’s dark shadow is on the Moon for 3 h 23 min.
Do I need anything to watch it?
No. A lunar eclipse is safe to watch with the naked eye, from anywhere the Moon is above the horizon. Binoculars show the colour better.
