A blood moon occurs when theres a full moon in close proximity to the Earth a so-called super moon in combination with an eclipse of the moon, which happens when the Earth passes between the sun and moon. The two events will produce a reddish glow around the somewhat darkened moon for about an hour Sunday night. The last blood moon occurred in 1982 and the next one wont occur until 2033...

I'm outside at the moment observing the full eclipse. It's more impressive to the human eye than it is to a phone's camera, so no pics to share. Does look a bit further away now than it did before the eclipse started, but the orange glow is a rare spectacle worth seeing.
