January skywatchers are get exciting because a rare event will happen in the sky - Super Blue Blood Moon Eclipse. This phenomenon occur in every 150 years - so in our lifetime never again except if we discovery the long life formula. But what means this? This is a combination of 2 full moon - this they call blue moon when in one months two full moon occur (the first full moon was at 2 of jan), supermoon when the moon's perigee its closest approach to Earth in a single orbit and then we see the moon much bigger and brighter and also will be Lunar Eclipse, when the moon passes into Earth's shadow.

Day and night sides of Earth at the eclipse (13:30 UT). You must be on the night side of the world to witness it. |
Regions seeing, at least, some parts of the eclipse: North/East Europe, Asia, Australia, North/East Africa, North America, North/West South America, Pacific, Atlantic, Indian Ocean, Arctic, Antarctica.
But i have a bad news - Africa, a large percentage of the Americas, along with the UK, Middle east and eastern Europe won’t see the eclipse because the eclipse will already be underway as the moon rises :(
