Hoosiers should be able to witness what NASA says is a "lunar trifecta" Wednesday morning. That's if you get up early enough and the sky is clear.
The super, blue, blood moon is a rare occurrence.
It's a super moon because it will be closer to Earth in its orbit, making it look brighter. It's called a blue moon because it's the second full moon of the month.
But the moon's color will actually be red because of a lunar eclipse, also called a blood moon.
"The outer rim of the earth's shadow will touch the moon, so to speak at 6:15 a.m.," says Greg McCauley, Executive Director of the Link Observatory Space Science Institute. "That shadow will then move across the face of the moon and there will be a full lunar eclipse at 6:48."
McCauley says unlike the total solar eclipse that happened in August, viewers can look directly at the spectacle without special glasses and are encouraged to use a telescope.
