"The Blood Moon rises this year on Wednesday, Oct. 27th. At first it will
seem pale and cold, as usual. And then ... blood red. It's a lunar eclipse.
Beginning at 9:14 p.m. EDT (6:14 p.m. PDT), the moon will glide through
Earth's shadow for more than three hours. Observers on every continent (map)
except Australia can see the event: The pale-white moon will turn pumpkin
orange as it plunges into shadow, becoming eerie red during totality.
Warning: While you're staring at the sky, you might hear footsteps among the
trees, the twang of a bow, a desperate scurry to shelter. That's just your
imagination."
