Super Blue Blood Moon; What is it? How to See it

A lunar eclipse super moon and blue moon are all expected to occur on Wednesday night

Before and during sunrise on Wednesday, Jan. 31, 2018, Hawaiʻi residents and visitors will be able to view the "super blue blood moon".

The best time to view the moon with a reddish tint in the NY to D.C. area is around 6:48 a.m. Wednesday, according to NASA. However, in the Rogue Valley, there will be the chance for areas of fog to develop that could obscure or limit the view of the Super Blue Blood Moon. There hasn't been a triple lineup like this since 1982 and the next won't occur until 2037. Oddly enough, this phenomena is not that rare, occurring on average every 2.5 years. This results in the Moon gaining a larger than usual size that we can see from Earth.

For people in the Central Time Zone, the lighter part of the Earth's shadow will touch the moon by 4:51 a.m.

The next total lunar eclipse with a supermoon will be January 21, 2019.

The spectacle will hover less than 10 degrees above the western horizon at that time, which could make it hard to see if mountains are in your line of sight. The last full moon was on New Years Day.

Mary Stewart Adams of the Headlands International Dark Sky Park in Emmett County joined Stateside today to explain what this rare lunar event is, what Michiganders will be able to see, and when.

Princess Eugenie, daughter of Prince Andrew, engaged
It is Jack's grandmother Joanna Newton, 91, who confirmed the couple would be tying the knot the following month instead. The reception for the weddings of Prince Harry and Princess Eugenie could easily be held at the 55-meter St.

The National Weather Service has forecast mostly clear skies between Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, with an overnight low of 46 degrees.

But the super moon will be visible tonight.

A red moon is a lunar eclipse where the moon, sun and earth all align.

NASA will air a live feed of the total lunar eclipse starting at 5:30 a.m. ET on January 31, showing off the lunar body as it dips into Earth's shadow. And a lunar eclipse is when the moon is darkened by the Earth's shadow. The total eclipse will start at 6.21 p.m. and end by 7.38 p.m. Unlike the big solar eclipse a year ago, this event relies on the passage of the earth's shadow and the position of the sun. The hue of the moon will change to a reddish-blood color.

Die-hard eclipse-watchers should head out at 3:51 a.m., when the Earth's penumbra, the partial shadow of our planet, begins crossing the moon's surface.
