Full Blood Moon over West Asia, Southeast Asia & Eastern Europe

🌕 A full Blood Moon, also known as a Corn Moon, rises over the night sky 

📌 This phenomenon was visible across several regions of the world and lasted for hours.

Blood Moons can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are exactly or very closely aligned with Earth between the other two. During these rare events, the full Moon rapidly darkens and then glows red as it enters the Earth's shadow. A small amount of indirect sunlight is still reaching the Moon, passing through Earth's atmosphere, resulting in a reddish hue. This light appears reddish due to the Rayleigh scattering of blue light—the same reason sunrises and sunsets are more orange than during the day.
