Take a look at the rare blood moon that took over skies in upstate New York early Friday morning. The celestial event has not been seen in the United States since 2022.
A lunar eclipse takes place when the moon passes into the Earth’s shadow. This is much more common than solar eclipses like we saw last year due to the size of the Earth’s shadow.
Also known as a "blood moon," the moon will appear red as it passes into the umbra, or direct shadow, of the Earth.
Our photographer Kenny Mitchell woke up early to get a view of the total lunar eclipse incase you decided to sleep instead.
