Blood Moon And Total Lunar Eclipse Seen In Christchurch, New Zealand

This combination of pictures shows the moon in various stages of the Blood Moon during a total lunar eclipse in Christchurch, New Zealand on November 08, 2022. On Tuesday evening people across Australia and New Zealand could see a total lunar eclipse. The next set of lunar eclipses after this one will be visible from this region on March 14, 2025 according to NASA. A lunar eclipse happens when the moon travels through Earth's shadow. The Earth blocks the sunlight from reaching the Moon, and instead light is bent through the Earths atmosphere, casting a reddish hue over the Moon.
