The moon would be passing very close through the center of the earth shadow, a point at which the moon is farthest from the earth, Elphic explains. The farther the moon is from the earth, and the closer it passes through the center of earth’s shadow, the longer we can view what is called totality, when our shadow completely covers the moon.

Organizations such as Sloth will be live-streaming feeds from telescopes all over the world, so you can catch what is being called the Full Buck Moon at around 10:30 a.m. Pacific time.

You would see the sunrise and sunset of the Earth like lighting up the surface of the Moon upto 350,000 km away. If you were on the Moon, you would see a total solar eclipse as the Earth would be blocking the Sun, – Report from ANI
