Lunar Eclipse over a Gothic Cathedral:

The lunar Eclipse that occurred on Monday, January 21, has received different names:

1. A supermoon because the Moon was closer to Earth than usual;

2. The blood Moon because of the scattering of sunlight in the Earth's atmosphere gives it its unusual red color;

3. Wolf Moon — January's full moon is sometimes so called because of the legend that wolves like to howl at the moon.

Eclipse of the moon was captured in numerous photos of the professionals and Amateurs of the night sky. This collage was created from images of the moon over Cologne Cathedral, a world heritage site by UNESCO. Image szklane from 68 different exposures taken during the three hours.

The next total lunar Eclipse will occur in 2021.
