On January 31, 2018, Nebraska had the chance to see the Super Blue Blood Moon just before dawn. This title breaks down like this
- Super Moon: The full moon is near its closest point to the Earth along its orbit making it a percent or so larger.
- Blood Moon: The moon will be in a full lunar eclipse causing the moon to have a reddish hue.
- Blue Moon: This is the 2nd full moon in 1 Calendar Month.
I set out to try to record this event, something that hasn't been seen in North America in over 150 years. Unfortunately, the clouds played havoc on my plans, but I was able to get some shots as you'll see in the video below.
