A super blood Moon is a sight that stargazers have been treated to.
Our planet was positioned between the Sun and the Moon for a few minutes after the sun set on Monday.
The moon fell into the shadow of Earth and turned a dark red shade.
It was created by sunlight being projected onto the Moon.
There was a lunar eclipse and a super Moon. The Moon appears larger than usual when it is at its closest point to Earth.
The best view of the super blood Moon was when the full lunar eclipse began in the Western hemisphere.
After almost one and a half hours, the only sunlight reaching the Moon had passed through the Earth's atmosphere.
The phenomenon was only visible in Europe during the time when the Moon was setting. Under clear skies, the full spectacle was seen.
You will be able to see every sunrise and sunset on the Earth at the same time. All of that light will be projected on to the Moon, according to Dr Gregory Brown, astronomer at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London.
He said that if he were an astronauts standing on the Moon, he would see a red ring around the planet.
