Blood Moon
Spectacular total lunar eclipse turns moon Red
A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon and the sun are on opposite sides of the Earth. This actually happens quite frequently, but it is rare for the alignment to be just right so that the Earth blocks out all the sun’s light and the moon goes almost completely dark.
This is the first of four total eclipses, which will take place roughly every six months for the next two years.
