Blood Moon And Super Moon in My Country - Indonesia

Blood Moon or the Red Moon is a term to refer to the phenomenon of the Total Moon Eclipse.
When the total lunar eclipse occurs, the moon will look red, like the color of blood.
the total lunar eclipse is divided into several phases.
It begins when the Moon enters a faint penumbra or shadow of the Earth, then into the umbra or shadow of Earth's core.
After that, the Moon is fully in the Earth's umbra.

Then the Moon comes out from the Earth's umbra and finally comes out of the Earth's penumbra.
Then, when will the Moon look red?
The moon will look red when the Moon is in the umbra or shadow of Earth's core.
Not when the Moon starts to enter or out of the Earth's umbra
The moon is red because the light emitted is very dim.
The more pollution around us, the Moon will look redder.

one day after the blood moon, I saw a very big moon, maybe this is called super moon.
Supermoon or super moon is a phenomenon that occurs when the Moon is at its closest point to Earth.
The Moon's orbit around the Earth is not a circle, but is oval like the Earth's orbit on the Sun.
Well, because of its shape, the Moon can be at the nearest point or the furthest point from Earth.

In astronomical terms, the nearest point of the Moon to Earth is called the perigee.
While the furthest point of the Moon to Earth is called apogee.
When the Moon is near the Earth, the Moon will appear brighter and bigger than usual.
That's why this phenomenon is called supermoon.
