You gotta get up early! ![[tired]](graemlins/tired.gif)
"In the USA, the best time to look is during the hours before sunrise. Western states are favored: The Moon makes first contact with the core of Earth's shadow at 3:48 am Pacific Time, kicking off the partial eclipse. Totality begins at 4:52 am PST as Earth's shadow engulfs the lunar disk for more than an hour. "Maximum orange" is expected around 5:30 am PST. Easternmost parts of the USA will miss totality altogether."

If you are looking for celestial events it will not be high noon.

The Sky Gods have not been kind to me recently, I've missed the last few notable celestial events due to heavy cloud, but they smiled on me tonight...

If you watch 'The History Of NASA' backwards, it's about a space agency that has no manned spaceflight capability, then does low-orbit flights, then lands on the Moon.
