For those who took a chance to stargaze last night, September 27, you may have noticed the breathtaking red hue and phenomenon that is the ‘blood moon’. It was partially cloudy last night so it may have been hard to view. The red-like tinge was eye-catching to many.  The best chance to catch the beautiful sight was at seven according to students observing the event. A large number of people saw the eclipse and described it to be a sight that could not be missed.

Many found it convenient to see the eclipse at its height during halftime of the Broncos game. Mr. Kane said that the “Blood Moon perfectly timed’ with his football fever.
