This space event is quite different from the common lunar eclipse since it will happen during a full moon, meaning that it will be a Blood Moon Total Lunar Eclipse. 

Once this happens, the full moon will move into the deep umbral shadow of the Earth. Because of this, the whole color of the moon will change since the planet's penumbral cone will completely cover it.

When it comes to date, the total lunar eclipse will be visible from May 15 to 16. People will start seeing it from around 10:28 p.m. EDT. 

At around 12:11 a.m. EDT on May 16, experts said that the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse would be at its peak. This means that you will see the Earth's natural satellite's incomplete red color. 

This space display is expected to end around 1:55 a.m. EDT. Aside from this, there will also be another lunar eclipse, which will happen on Nov. 8. 

In 2023, people can also expect two lunar eclipses. If you want to see more details about these, you can visit this link.  

How To Take Better Moon Photos With Your Smartphone? 

Some smartphones released by Apple, Samsung, and other giant tech firms already have advanced camera features that can help your capture good moon photos. 

But, there are still some tricks you can rely on to capture better moon images without purchasing a new mobile device. CBC provided some of them: 

  • Use special moon camera applications. These apps already have settings that will help you capture more Instagrammable moon images. 
  • If you don't want to buy new smartphones, then you can purchase smartphone lenses instead. This will provide extra effects that will make your moon photos better. 
  • Of course, you should not forget to bring a tripod. This will allow you to have a steady output, especially when you are using your phone's camera pro mode. 

Previously, NASA's new data framework for the Moon Wobble 2030 is expected to arrive soon. 

On the other hand, the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter was able to capture new moon images.
