Moongazing


Wolf Moon is the name given to the full moon in January.

A total lunar eclipse is called a Blood Moon because of the reddish tint that occurs when the Earth casts its shadows over the Moon.

When the Moon reaches its closest orbital point to Earth, it is called a Super Moon because it appears 10 to 15 times larger than is normal.

Tonight there will be a Super Blood Wolf Moon.  Moonrise is at 5:33 pm EST.  The eclipse begins at 9:36 pm EST, and last until 2:28 am EST.  Prime viewing time is from 11:41 pm EST to 12:43 am EST. 

Might have to bundle up and brave the cold tonight.  Might even do a little howling.
