Astronomers are gearing up to spot a rare phenomenon, as a lunar eclipse coincides with a so-called "supermoon".

'Supermoon' set to coincide with lunar eclipse - BBC News

 

[Valerie]

A supermoon occurs when the Moon is in the closest part of its orbit to Earth, meaning it appears larger in the sky.

The eclipse - expected to make the Moon appear red in colour - will be visible in North America, South America, West Africa and western Europe.

Nasa claims a supermoon last coincided with a lunar eclipse in 1982 and is not expected to again until 2033.

Why is this in religion&ethics though?

I couldn't see anything. Too many trees in the way in my area.

The moon means that Islam is over. Too bad.

 

[boedicca]

Such a disappointment. It was so low on the horizon, we really couldn't see the vibrant color at totality.

Oh, well. I hope it's better in 2033.

 

[ChrisL]

I probably could have seen it if I felt like driving somewhere where there aren't any trees in the way, but I was really tired last night and didn't feel like going anywhere. I couldn't see it from my yard, so oh well.

 

[Mr. H.]

I got lucky as it was clouded over at first, then cleared when it was about 1/4 covered. Watched until it was total, then the clouds came back. Got some lousy phone pictures.
