Total Eclipse Paints the Moon Red

2014-04-15 23:41:18| TechNewsWorld

A total lunar eclipse in the early hours of Tuesday gave viewers a rare glimpse of what's sometimes called a "blood moon," due to the reddish hue it takes on as a result of dust in the atmosphere. Beginning at about 1:55 AM EDT on April 15, the eclipse lasted roughly three and a half hours -- peaking at 3:45 a.m. EDT. -- and was visible in North America, South America and Australia.
