Numerous pictures and video has come in of the red Blood moon eclipse from the other night.If you have taken any photos it would be great if you can share then with our community by uploading via the 'upload' link above.
The colour change was caused by a scattering of sunlight as it passed through the thin ring of the earth's atmosphere, removing the blue light and passing mainly the red, some of which illuminated the moon.
At the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, some 300 people, many clutching coffee cups in the frigid morning air, sat with blankets and chairs on the observatory's great lawn. Source
