Blood Moon on March 14th: A Spectacular Total Lunar Eclipse

Skygazers, mark your calendars! A breathtaking celestial event is on the horizon as the Moon is set to turn a deep red hue on the night of March 13-14, 2025. This phenomenon, known as a Blood Moon, occurs during a total lunar eclipse, when Earth's shadow completely covers the Moon, causing it to glow in shades of red and orange.

What Causes a Blood Moon?

A Blood Moon happens when the Earth comes directly between the Sun and the Moon, blocking sunlight from reaching the lunar surface. However, some of the Sun’s light passes through Earth’s atmosphere, scattering shorter wavelengths (blue and violet) while allowing longer wavelengths (red and orange) to reach the Moon. This creates the eerie, reddish glow that makes a Blood Moon so mesmerizing.

When and Where to Watch

The total lunar eclipse will be visible in various parts of the world, including North and South America, parts of Europe, and Africa. If you are in a region with a clear sky, you won’t need any special equipment—just step outside and look up!
