2019 begins with this rare and unusual astronomical phenomenon .. know it

You see North America and Europe … and a glimpse of the Middle East and Africa

The sky is a rare event in early 2019, when the appearance of the so-called giant moon is associated with a total eclipse of the moon, a phenomenon that can be observed in North America and in some European countries.

The giant moon, the first red light in 2019, will interfere with eclipses, when the earth will be directly between the sun and the moon, which means that the moon will be in the ground, reported Sky News.

The giant bloody moon is not very rare and call this description because the sunlight enters the Earth's atmosphere towards the moon and the atmosphere of the Earth the makes red while the sun disk is painted red at sunset.

When the moon enters the conical shadow of the earth, it passes from the sun to darkness, but some of the light will reach the moon as it is interrupted by the Earth's atmosphere.

It is unusual to have a total eclipse of the moon and a giant moon together.

And the phenomenon of "giant moon" coincides with the appearance of the full moon at the point closest to its orbit around the Earth, making it appear larger than the normal size.

This characteristic phenomenon will occur in North America and some European countries on the night of January 20, while the Middle East and the rest of Africa will be able to capture the partial 62-minute lunar eclipse.

The last lunar eclipse took place on July 27th and the next lunar eclipse is scheduled for 2021.
