The spectacle, which hasn't occurred since 1982, was the convergence of three celestial events: a supermoon, blue moon and total lunar eclipse. As observed, the moon turned orangish-red thus the 'blood' description. The next 'super blue blood moon' will happen in 2037.

Penumbral eclipse began 6:49 PST, partial eclipse at 7:48 and the most awaited greatest eclipse at 9:29 p.m.
