Much of the U.S. will not be able to see it because of cloudy skies.

In 2014, there are two solar eclipses and two total lunar eclipses

The lunar eclipse tonight is the first of four consecutive total lunar eclipses in 2014 and 2015.

The term, Blood Moon, has recently become popular while referring to the total lunar eclipses of the tetrad that will occur in 2014 and 2015. This term has no technical or astronomical basis and it is unclear where such a description comes from.

One theory about why these eclipses are being called Blood Moon eclipses comes from the fact that the full Moon can sometimes appear bright coppery red during a total lunar eclipse.
