BLOOD MOON ECLIPSE ON NOW 9:30PM SUN 15 MAY

Happening right now (10:02 Grand Cayman Time) Sunday night, May 15, a gorgeous total eclipse of the Moonis happening and the sky is clear. It’s especially welcome since it’s been years since we’ve had a true total lunar eclipse, says Bob Berman writing in ALMANAC.

“Totality starts just before 11:30 PM and lasts about an hour and a quarter. But unlike a solar eclipse whose totality displays many marvelous phenomena, nothing really occurs during lunar totality except the Full Moon turns coppery red. And the countless faint stars of Libra masked by the Full Moon during the night’s first half now fill the sky. So although a total lunar eclipse is nowhere near as life-altering as the total solar variety, it’s still very worth staying up to see!” – Bob Berman.
