I know many are watching the lunar eclipse in a blue moon. NASA said it is a super blue moon. But is it really bloody?

At 6:44 PM, this is how the moon looks like in Cebu City, Philippines.

My family and I enjoyed watching the moon getting smaller and smaller as the Earth aligns at the middle of the sun and the moon.

At 8:10 PM, the moon looks like this. A closer look at the moon shows almost a half-moon at this time.

      I read that the next time we see this phenomenon will be on 2037.

        Yes @gogle. It's temporary. But at least we get to see it like this sometimes.
