Americans will see Tuesday morning a rare ‘bloodmoon’ total lunar eclipse for the first time in more than two years, scientists said.The lunar eclipse starts early Tuesday morning at 12:53 am, when earthmovesbetween sun and moon.This eclipse will become more interesting once earth’s shadow completely covers themoon with a red or orange light around 3 am, scientists said.NASA scientist Michelle Thaller said, “The moon will line up in just the right angle topass through earth’s shadow. This will block sunlight reaching the moon. We willactually see the earth’s shadow creep across the full moon. The moon will look redat the deepest part of the eclipse.”“This phenomenon is because sunlight reaching the moon bends through the earth’satmosphere. This explains why a sunset is red. The earth’s atmosphere scatters awayblue light, but allows red light through.
