Total Lunar Eclipse Bathes September Night in Red as Blood Moon Stuns Three Continents

A vivid blood moon on Sept. 7–8, 2025 wowed skywatchers across Asia, Western Australia, and Europe. Totality lasted about 82 minutes, with the greatest eclipse around 18:11 UTC. About 77% of the world’s population had a clear shot at the full phase. The deep red hue came from Earth’s atmosphere filtering sunlight, and the eclipse arrived in the same season as a partial solar eclipse due on Sept. 21.
