In pictures: Moon turns blood red in lunar eclipse

A partial lunar eclipse occurred early on [date], visible across the Americas and Europe. Known as a 'Blood Moon,' the event saw approximately 96% of the Moon pass through Earth's umbra, giving it a reddish hue due to atmospheric scattering. While the view was obstructed by clouds and rain in Ireland, clear skies allowed observers in locations such as Kansas City, Mexico City, New Orleans, Lisbon, Rome, and Salvador, Brazil, to witness the phenomenon. Photographers captured images of the moon rising over city landmarks, appearing alongside iconic structures, and setting behind historical sites. Astronomy Ireland noted this eclipse would be the last significant one visible from Ireland until December 2028.
