Blood moon

BLOOD MOON

When there is a total lunar eclipse( when the moon, the sun, and the earth are in a straight line and the earth block the sun's light to the moon), a blood moon is visible. The moon appears to be copper red and that's why it is referred as blood moon. Although it is a total lunar eclipse, not everyone will get a chance to see it as it depends on what their locations are.  This phenomenon will happen in January 31, 2018.
