A full moon rises behind blocks of flats in north London, Britain, January 31, 2018. On Wednesday, much of the world see not only a blue moon and a supermoon, but also a total lunar eclipse, all rolled into one. There hasn’t been a triple lineup like this since 1982 and the next won’t occur until 2037. A blue moon is the second full moon in a month. A supermoon is a particularly close full or new moon, appearing somewhat brighter and bigger. A total lunar eclipse – or blood moon for its reddish tinge – has the moon completely bathed in Earth’s shadow. (Photo by Eddie Keogh/Reuters)
