Stargazers across the globe got the chance to see a total lunar eclipse – called a blood moon – on Sunday night and early on Monday.
The moon turned a deep, dark red as the Earth passed directly between the sun and the moon, casting its shadow across the lunar surface.
Asia had the best seats in the house, while countries in the Middle East and Europe also enjoyed prime views.
The eclipse was visible to the naked eye and unlike solar eclipses was safe to view directly as the moon’s reflected light is not as bright.
The Royal Observatory Greenwich in London said the next partial lunar eclipse will not be until August next year.
Here are some snaps of the big moment…
