LUNAR ECLIPSE!!! (BLOOD MOON)

Though it has already passed, I am doing a pot about the 2018 Lunar Eclipse, it was the longest eclipse of the century.  The eclipse lasted 3 hours and 40 minutes but when the moon is totally covered it lasted for 1 hour and 40 minutes.  The eclipse was visible to Australia, New Zealand, Eastern Africa, Central Asia, Western Africa, Europe, Western Africa.  But some of them they only saw how it rose. It was also called the blood moon.

This is how a Lunar Eclipse works, (if you don't know).
