Last lunar eclipse before 2025 happens on Election Day
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Something special is happening next Tuesday but it has nothing to do with election day. It will be your last chance to see a total lunar eclipse until 2025.
The celestial event happens during a full moon; when the earth, moon and sun line up so that the earth blocks the moon from the sun's light.
It is also known as a blood moon because the moon can appear in varying shades of red as the earth casts a shadow on it.
