Timelapse shows Blood Moon rising around the world

The article discusses the recent phenomenon of the "Blood Moon," which occurs when the Moon passes through the Earth's shadow during a lunar eclipse. The event was captured in a timelapse video that shows the Moon's transformation from its regular appearance to a deep red color as it enters the Earth's shadow. The Blood Moon is caused by the refraction of sunlight through the Earth's atmosphere, which scatters the shorter wavelengths of light and allows the longer, redder wavelengths to pass through and reach the Moon's surface. This creates the distinctive reddish-orange hue that is characteristic of a Blood Moon. The timelapse video showcases the Moon's gradual change in appearance as it moves through the Earth's shadow, providing a visually striking representation of this astronomical event. The article highlights the global nature of the phenomenon, as the Blood Moon was visible from various parts of the world during the lunar eclipse.
