The sky turned red in the early hours of Friday morning thanks to the "Blood Worm Moon" total lunar eclipse. As the moon passed behind Earth in relation to the sun, it appeared as if the moon turned red due to the Earth's shadow being cast over the moon. See viewer photos of the event.

March's full moon is called the "Worm Moon," according to the Farmer's Almanac, which has documented the history of how full moons are named. Moons that take on these reddish hues during a total lunar eclipse are called " Blood Moons ." The combined nicknames have resulted in some calling it the " Blood Worm Moon ."
