SUPERMOON LUNAR ECLIPSE LAST NIGHT: This year's only total lunar eclipse took place last night along with a supermoon, which was visible throughout North and South America and parts of Europe. The moon, Earth and sun lined up to create the eclipse, and the moon appeared a little bigger and brighter because it was a supermoon, when it is slightly closer to Earth. The moon looked red, because during a total lunar eclipse, sunlight scattering off Earth’s atmosphere gives it that hue.
