A lunar eclipse early Monday produced a “blood moon,” which occurs when the sun, Earth and moon align.
“The more dust or clouds in Earth’s atmosphere during the eclipse, the redder the Moon will appear,” the space agency wrote on its website. “It’s as if all the world’s sunrises and sunsets are projected onto the Moon.”
The next lunar eclipse will occur in November, according to NASA, and be visible in the western U.S., eastern parts of Asia and Japan.The moon sets in the morning during a partial lunar eclipse behind the Frauenkirche and the dome of the Kunstakedmie with the angel"Fama" in Saxony, Germany.Photo taken on May 15, 2022 shows a full moon in the sky over Cairo, Egypt.
