Thousands turned their gaze toward the sky last night, as the moon underwent a rare lunar eclipse that caused it to turn red.
The so called “blood moon,” also happened to be a “supermoon,” meaning that the moon was larger in the night sky than it usually is. This allowed stargazers a spectacular view of an astronomical event not seen since 1982 — and one that won’t be back until 2033.
Utah filmmaker Parker Walbeck managed to film the blood moon in 4K resolution as it traveled across the night sky, capturing the eclipse from beginning to end and showcasing the moon's deep red color.
In case you missed it last night — or simply want to see it again — check out the high quality video attached.
