You've probably heard about the super blood wolf moon lately, especially if you're an amateur stargazer. Here's what you need to know about this celestial event.A total lunar eclipse, when the moon slips into the darkest part of Earth's shadow, presents as a orangish or reddish surface because the only sunlight reaching the Moon passes through Earth’s atmosphere, according to NASA.
The moon will appear even more red when there's more dust or clouds in the Earth's atmosphere, according to NASA. Because of the hue, the events often are referred to as"blood moon" eclipses, though it's not a term used by astronomers, Murphy said.And the best way to watch the eclipse? "People do have binoculars that would be great, too, but you don't need them to enjoy it," Murphy said.Total eclipse of the moon: How to watch next week's total lunar eclipse in Central IndianaAs of Wednesday, the National Weather Service forecast for Indianapolis on the day of the eclipse calls for a 20 percent chance of showers.
