Super Blue Blood Moon - tonight !

tomorrow - and it will be red. Only blue in a poetic way as it will be a second full moon in the same month. Think there is another one later in the year.

Here you go spotty

This a great site - I get regular emails from them about all things celestial

Yes....was going to give a link but had to go out

From above site :

The Blue Moon – second of two full moons in one calendar month – will pass through the Earth’s shadow on January 31, 2018, to give us a total lunar eclipse. Totality, when the moon will be entirely inside the Earth’s dark umbral shadow, will last a bit more than one-and-a-quarter hours. The January 31 full moon is also the third in a series of three straight full moon supermoons – that is, super-close full moons. It’s the first of two Blue Moons in 2018. So it’s not just a total lunar eclipse, or a Blue Moon, or a supermoon. It’s all three … a super Blue Moon total eclipse!

Is it the first Blue Moon total eclipse in 150 years, as some social media memes are now claiming? It is … if you’re not considering the whole world, but only the Americas. More about that below.

How about supermoon total lunar eclipses? The last supermoon total lunar eclipse was in September 2015. And the last super Blue Moon total eclipse happened on December 30, 1982.

I've taken several pictures in the past 12 mths of planes crossing the moon - hoping for an opportunity tomorrow - had a few near misses yesterday

The blue moon bit is just a calendar thing, it doesn't affect the way the moon looks and is just used to make it a bigger story.

Okay....right..... tonight is the night, clear sky in West London....moon up in the East....looks normal colour at the moment !

The Leopard - Since we are not in the eclipse area (either partial nor total) why are you expecting it to change colour?

There will be blood !

....or maybe not.

For those who missed it
