What is a blood moon?

A blood moon is a phenomenon in which the moon appears in a red color during a lunar eclipse. It is called a blood moon because of its dark red color. The characteristics of the Earth's atmosphere create such a view when viewed from here. The refraction and scattering of sunlight in the Earth's atmosphere cause a blood moon. Dust, gas, and other particles in the atmosphere can cause fluctuations in red rays.
