Total lunar eclipses occur when the moon passes through the innermost part of the Earth's shadow. During a total eclipse, the Earth blocks the sun's light from reaching the lunar surface. The copper hue of the moon is due to sunlight reflected off the surface. This type of lunar eclipse is known as a blood moon due to its red appearance.
Eclipse scientist Fred Espenak has listed May 15th's full moon as a super moon, in which the full moon is at perigee, making it a Blood Moon eclipse.
