Super Blood Wolf Moon Eclipse January 2019 Date and Time:
Stargazers around the world will be able to view a trifecta of events on January 20 and 21 this year which includes a total lunar eclipse, super blood moon and a “Wolf Moon”, also known as Super Blood Wolf Moon.
The Super Blood Moon, a phenomenon wherein the Moon appears particularly large and bright with a reddish glow, will appear in the night sky around much of the world on January 20 and 21. Wolf Moon is the name given by native Americans to a full moon that appears in the middle of winter.
Super Blood Moon happens during a total lunar eclipse when the Earth passes in between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the Sun’s light from falling directly on the Moon. However, the little light that manages to pass from the edges of the Earth’s atmosphere lit up the Moon’s surface and makes it look red
During a total lunar eclipse, the Sun, Earth and the Moon are perfectly lined up. Also, a lunar eclipse only takes place when there is a full Moon.
The Moon appears larger and brighter during a Super Moon given it is closer than usual to the Earth.
