March's full moon, the Worm Moon, will include a total lunar eclipse, featuring a red "blood moon." Here's what to know.

"Dust and clouds can affect the ultimate color of the moon during this event, which means that each total lunar eclipse ends up being somewhat unique and ultimately 'reflective' of the state of our own planet's weather," Eric Edelman, the planetarium director at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's Jim and Linda Lee Planetarium, told Mashable.

Hundreds of millions of Americans will have the chance in March to see the first total lunar eclipse in nearly three years.
