A Blood Moon lunar eclipse swept over densely populated areas in the Americas, Antarctica, Europe, Africa on Sunday (May 15) and Monday (May 16).
The total eclipse happened as the moon moved into the umbral, or deeper, shadow of Earth. As the sun’s light was refracted around the edges of our planet’s atmosphere, the red hue shone on the moon’s surface.
