Blood moon visible over Australia tonight
CHANDIGARH, INDIA - MAY 26: A full moon event, known as the Super Blood Moon seen on May 26, 2021 in Chandigarh, India. The first total lunar eclipse in two years is set to take place on May 26 and it will be a Super blood moon. It will also be visible from some parts of the Pacific, the Atlantic, and the Indian ocean. This is a Super Blood Moon, where the moon appears reddish orange in colour and really big as well as it is a full moon and the satellite is closest to Earth. The eclipsed Moon is dimly illuminated by red-orange light left over from all of the sunsets and sunrises occurring around the world at that time.

Stargazers across Australia will stay up late this Tuesday as the full moon turns red in a rare, "must-see" lunar eclipse.
