  "summary": "A partial lunar eclipse will be visible across parts of Canadian skies from Thursday night into Friday, according to Global News. Around 93 or 94 percent of the moon will be obscured, leaving a tiny sliver of the moon visible. The eclipse is expected to peak around 10:10 p.m. mountain time and 12:10 a.m. eastern standard time, and will be most visible in the central and eastern parts of Canada. Dr. William Archer, a program scientist in heliophysics at the Canadian Space Agency, stated that there is no need to wear protective eyeglasses or equipment to enjoy the eclipse, as it is no more dangerous than looking at the moon.",
