The inhabitants of planet Earth will be lucky enough to see an incredibly rare astronomical phenomenon – “bloody blue supermoon” at dawn on 31 January.

In the night of 31 January, the inhabitants of planet Earth will be able to see, simultaneously, three astronomical phenomena – a lunar Eclipse, a supermoon and blue Month, reports “Rus.Media”.

The last time such a coincidence happened on 30 December 1982 for the Eastern hemisphere and March 31, 1866 for the Western hemisphere.

A total lunar Eclipse will see the inhabitants of Central and Western North America.

“Blue bloody supermoon” will begin at dawn on 31 January.

It is known that during a total lunar Eclipse, the Moon is in the shadow of the Earth. In turn, blue Moon is the second full moon that falls in one calendar month. A supermoon is the point of closest approach of the moon and the Earth.
