Tonight: A Supermoon Lunar Eclipse
Our Moon will turn red tonight. It is passing through Earth's shadow, an event called a lunar eclipse. This particular full Moon is also a "supermoon," meaning it is at its closest point to Earth in its orbit. The combination of these events makes for a rare and striking celestial display.
