Astronomy Picture of the Day © NASA: A Total Lunar Eclipse Corona REMARKABLE: In advance of Annular Solar Eclipse we'll have tomorrow, and can be seen in some parts of Russia, Greenland, and northern Canada, we have this amazing photo, depicting what is called a Super Flower Blood Moon, a full moon that is the closest approach to the Earth, undergoing a total lunar eclipse, hence is called blood, and with some thin clouds. Along with this Moon, we have the Milky Way, which is quite a sight! Enjoy! This moon appears multiply strange. This moon was a full moon, specifically called a Flower Moon at this time of the year. But that didn't make it strange -- full moons occur once a month (moon-th). This moon was a supermoon, meaning that it reached its full phase near its closest approach to the Earth in its slightly elliptical orbit. Somewhat strange, a supermoon appears a bit larger and brighter than the average full moon -- and enables it to be called a Super Flower Moon. This moon was undergoing a total lunar eclipse. An eclipsed moon can look quite strange, being dark, unevenly lit, and, frequently, red -- sometimes called blood red. Therefore, this moon could be called a Super Flower Blood Moon. This moon was seen through thin clouds. These clouds created a faint corona around the moon, making it look not only strange, but colorful. This moon was imaged so deeply that the heart of the Milky Way galaxy, far in the background, was visible to its lower right. This moon, this shadow, this galaxy and these colors were all captured last month near Cassilis, NSW, Australia -- with a single shot. (Merged later with two lower shots that better capture the Milky Way.)
