For North Americans, the farther East you go the better the view; as the Sun sets in the West, the Moon will coming up on the opposite side of the sky in the East.
A lunar eclipse occurs whenever the Moon passes through some portion of the Earth's shadow. This can occur only when the Moon is full, and when the Sun, Earth and Moon are aligned exactly, or very closely so. The type and length of a lunar eclipse depends upon the Moon's location relative to its orbital nodes. The next total lunar eclipse will take place on 3 March 2007 and will be at least partly visible over the eastern Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia, and western Australia.[1] This moon entered the penumbral shadow at 20:18 UTC, and will enter the umbral shadow at 21:30 UTC. The Moon will be totally immersed in the shadow of the Earth between 22:44 and 23:58 UTC.[/b]
