Nature lovers will have their fill of celestial treats in January with two super moon, a blue moon and total lunar eclipse gracing the night sky. The first super moon of 2018 will occur on the evening of New Year's Day to the night of Jan 2.
The last full moon of January is also known as a 'blue moon' because it is the second full moon to occur during a single month. The Jan 31st moon will also feature a total lunar eclipse.
Nicknamed as 'blood moon', the moon will appear to be red, because it lines up perfectly with the earth and sun as the Earth's shadow totally blocks the sun's light. Moreover the eclipse will make the moon a 'blood moon', a 'blue moon' and a 'super moon' all at the same time.
