Blood Moon visible across Montana during total lunar eclipse
The moon turned a blood-red color early Tuesday morning as a total lunar eclipse was visible across Montana. The total eclipse was visible for about an hour, beginning at 4:04 a.m. and reaching it's maximum eclipse at 4:33 a.m.
During a total lunar eclipse, the Earth's shadow completely covers a full moon. Sunlight is filtered through the Earth's atmosphere and the red light that passes through the atmosphere and reaches the moon's surface creates the blood-red glow.
The next total lunar eclipse won't occur again in the United States until June 26, 2029.
