“Blood Moon” a rare celestial event when the moon rises already in full eclipse

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]I love celestial events, so I am very excited about tonight’s total lunar eclipse which will be visible in North and South America, and lucky for me, in Australia. Tonight’s event is pretty rare apparently, and the copper tinge resulting from the radiation off of moon’s surface.

Personally, I haven’t seen one of these before. The copper tinge is actually not that uncommon, as almost every full eclipse is like that. Its the timing that makes in particularly rare.

If you live outside the footprint of this eclipse the kind folks at NASA have it streaming live on youtube. Here is  the link. Enjoy the show.
