Otherworldly Photos From Last Night's 'Blood Moon'



Monday
Night's Blood Moon didn't disappoint astro**my fans.
The
total lunar eclipse occurred when the moon entered the Earth's shadow in an event that is actually pretty rare. Light
From the sun scattered about the atmosphere, casting a reddish hue on the lunar surface. The event was visible with the naked eye in most parts of the Western Hemisphere, but some great
Photos came in
From around the world.
