Under a blood red moon

Blood Moon

Beginning at 9:14 p.m. EDT tonight there will be a total lunar eclipse:

"According to folklore, October's full moon is called the 'Hunter's Moon' or sometimes the 'Blood Moon.' It gets its name from hunters who tracked and killed their prey by autumn moonlight, stockpiling food for the winter ahead..."

UPDATE: Flickr users around the world capture the eclipse
