Sunday's lunar eclipse will also feature a 'Supermoon'


It hasn't happened in 33 years, and won't for another 18 years: Sunday evening, a total lunar eclipse will coincide with a "Supermoon."

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is between the full moon and the sun. The Earth's shadow covers the moon, which often has a red color, hence the "blood" moon nickname.

Although it's completely in the shadow of Earth, a bit of reddish sunlight still reaches the moon.

 It will be an excellent night for fishing and hog hunting.

Count me in. I'll be out howling at it too...
