your birthday.

NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Lunar Eclipse over Cologne Cathedral” is copyrighted by Martin Junius. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

See it on NASA's site
COSMIC MESSAGE

A total lunar eclipse makes the full Moon appear dark and red. This happens when the Moon enters the Earth's shadow, and sunlight scatters through our atmosphere, casting a reddish hue on the Moon. This particular event was dubbed a 'Super Blood Wolf Moon' due to the Moon's angular size, its color, and the traditional name for January's full Moon.
