On Wednesday, Oct. 8, the total lunar eclipse peak is set to offer a great view before the crack of dawn provided that the weather conditions will not disrupt the entire viewing experience. Interested observers are suggested to head out to the locations where the 2014 total lunar eclipse will be best viewed.

According to a Sky and Telescope report, the 2014 lunar eclipse peak can be observed across North America with the totality expected to kick off at 6:25 a.m. and end at 7:24 a.m. EDT on Wednesday morning. NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) eclipse expert Fred Espenak assures the event will be a stunning display so he encourages everyone to step outside and enjoy the view.

A Citizen-Times report revealed that the new Lookout Observatory in University of North Carolina (UNC) at Asheville will have a great view of the upcoming total lunar eclipse as UNC's Physics Department and Asheville's Astronomy Club host a free viewing session for the interested observers.

The Lookout Observatory will allow the viewers to watch the total lunar eclipse with their 14-inch optical telescopes through the low-pitched roof that slides back for a full-sky astronomical viewing experience. Moreover, the observatory will provide a low view of the western horizon which is essential when it comes to viewing the 2014 lunar eclipse.

Meanwhile, another free lunar eclipse viewing will take place at the Milo McIver State Park outside of Estacada starting at 1 a.m. on Oct. 8, 2014. According to an Oregon Live report, the Rose City Astronomers will be joining the Oregon Parks and Recreation in setting up the telescopes that the observers will use while viewing the total lunar eclipse peak.

Oregon Museum of Science and Industry's space science director Jim Todd will be in attendance as well to be a part of the informal talks on the lunar eclipse on Wednesday. Viewers are recommended to put on warm clothing while waiting for the sky event to take place.

The viewers can watch the total lunar eclipse with a telescope, binoculars or the naked eye since a lunar eclipse is safer to look at not the like solar eclipses where the sun's rays can harm the eyes. The 2014 total lunar eclipse with a reddish glow will be visible as well to those who are in Asia, Australia and the Pacific.
