"The rare blood Moon rises during the upcoming total eclipse because of a interesting and exact series of cosmological events. A lunar eclipse is born when the sun, Moon and Earth align in such a way that the Earth’s shadow is caused to land on the moon, darkening its surface. The blood-red crimson hue the Moon takes too is conjured by the refraction of the sun’s light through the Earth’s atmosphere. This is the same effect the sun has on planet Earth for the beautiful colorful sunsets experienced everyday. The light from the sunrises and sunsets becomes dispersed and lands on the face of the moon during its mid eclipse."
