                                                                                                     BLOOD MOON

                         This event occurs 3 times in 500 years. The moon appeared red in April 14-15. It was seen by nearly all American people. They could view with naked eye.The lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is situated directly between the sun and the full moon. The lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is situated directly between the sun and the full moon. The moon passes through Earth’s “umber,” making it appear a dark reddish-orange color. Because the Earth is completely obstructing the moon from receiving light from the sun, the light gets there indirectly as it has been filtered and refracted through the atmosphere. On the other hand, when the event happened, solemn wars were occurring such as The Spanish Inquisition and The War of Indepence.

                                  It was really significant event and I was very sad because I couldn't see. The event didn't happen in Turkey. Luckily, NASA broadcasted live on the Internet so we viewed. It was an amazing event. I hope that second blood moon will occur in Turkey and I will not miss. In addition, any war will not occur these years hopefully.
