SUPER BLUE MOON ECLIPSE ON JANUARY 31...

Moon came between noon and sunset

Setting in the wee hours after midnight

The Moon is in a Waxing Gibbous phase

Between a first quarter moon and full moon

So full moon became a Blue Moon, and a supermoon 

Which underwent a total eclipse – a Super Blue Moon eclipse. 

The January 31 full moon is super-close full moons.

It’s the first of two Blue Moons in 2018.

So it’s not just a total lunar eclipse, or a Blue Moon, or a supermoon.

It’s all three … a super Blue Moon total eclipse!

This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated

The phase lasts round 7 days

Moon is in the east in mid-afternoon

And will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Visible though most of the night sky setting a few hour before sunrise.

What a beautiful and delightful sight to see....  The  MOON GLOW!!!
