A partial lunar eclipse occurred across many regions of the world on September 17, offering a beautiful celestial show that captivated the skywatchers. The event coincided with the full moon of September, also known as the Harvest Moon. This moon is known as the supermoon, and it appeared slightly larger and brighter due to its closer proximity to Earth. Netizens have flooded their social media feeds with mesmerising and picturesque views of the Harvest Moon. Some observers noticed the moon taking a reddish hue during the eclipse, often called a “blood moon.” Take a look at some of the breathtaking pictures.

Wherever you are in the world right now, if it’s nighttime AND you can see the full “harvest” Moon, you will notice it’s not perfectly round. The Moon is currently experiencing a partial eclipse, as it skirts Earth’s conical shadow in space. pic.twitter.com/lL7qEHy1Qj
