The moon is changing slowly, and people are gathering together raising their heads for the blue blood moon.

　　On the night of January 31st, the total lunar eclipse, the super moon and the "blue moon" all appeared alongside in the midnight sky, presenting for the citizens of Yichang an astronomical spectacle, which was an once-in-a-lifetime event.

　　That "the dog eats the moon" is the simple interpretation to the total lunar eclipse in the folks. When a total lunar eclipse occurs, the moon gradually fades into a dark red color, and when the total lunar eclipse ends, it becomes bright again. The moon at this moment is known as the "blood moon". On the night of January 31st, the "super blue blood moon total eclipse" flooded many people’s Wechat. The "blue moon" does not mean the moon is blue, rather it refers to the second full moon in the same month. A "super moon" means that the moon appears larger and brighter when it comes to the perigee.
