Blue Moon Blood Moon
Heippa, Steemians. Did you notice that the Moon was little a bit big yesterday? 31.01.2018
It was the first total lunar eclipse since 2015 and the first Blue Moon Blood Moon visible from the U.S. since 1866!
The Moon was red, why?
The spectacle was rare because it was the convergence of three rare events: a supermoon, blue moon, and total lunar eclipse — which turns the moon orangish-red, hence the “blood” description. There won’t be another “super blue blood moon” until 2037.
The rarity of the Instagram-worthy sight :D meant many people all over the world woke up early to catch a unique lunar eclipse. The eclipse’s totality began around 7:41 a.m. (E.T.), but it is residents of the West Coast who will get a better look (if they wake up) thanks to the dark sky.
