Blood Moon: Stargazers across the Americas treated to rare total lunar eclipse

From Global News.

The full moon took on a reddish hue late Thursday as it moved into the shadow of the Earth in a rare total lunar eclipse.
The eclipse’s totality lasted 66 minutes, with a partial eclipse preceding and following as the moon moved between our planet and the sun, according to NASA.

When the moon moves into the cone-shaped shadow of the Earth, it goes from being illuminated by the sun to being dark. Some light, though, still reaches the moon because it is bent by the earth’s atmosphere, which gives it a rosy color, known as a "blood moon."

While the eclipse lasts roughly six hours, the totality period where the Moon is completely in the Earth’s shadow, lasts over just an hour. According to NASA, the next total lunar eclipse will fall on September 7, 2025.
