NASA Chat: Stay ‘Up All Night’ to Watch the Lunar Eclipse ...

Mitzi Adams: Some people call it a "blood moon." It's the first in a tetrad of lunar eclipses and Native American tribes in the north and eastern U.S. call a pink moon and this refers the full moon itself. They call it a pink moon because of the blooming of wild ground phlox, a pink blooming wildflower. ................
