Stargazers across metro Vancouver and the world held their cameras high for the rare “super blood moon” eclipse, the first appearance of its kind since 1982, and something we won’t see again until 2033.
Clear skies in the 604 provided unobstructed views of the red moon, which gets its name from the reddish hue the moon takes as Earth’s shadow passes over it. The rare event occurs when the moon is full at its perigee, which happens to be the nearest part of its orbit around Earth and ultimately appears to be bigger in size.
Below are photos of the supermoon lunar eclipse over Vancouver.
