Anyone living between Australia and the United States was able to see an enormous, bright, red Moon if the skies were clear.

Millions of people in many countries witnessed a "Super Blood Moon" event today. It was the first lunar eclipse in two years, which took place when the Moon was closest to Earth. The celestial event may not take place in the near future, experts say.
