What will be the rare eclipse of 'superlua azul de sangre' on January 31

A rare coincidence of celestial phenomena will be visible in the sky of some parts of the world on Wednesday (31): a total lunar eclipse, a superlum, blue moon and the so-called moon of blood. According to NASA, this coincidence will make January 31 a "special" day. "It's the third in a series of 'superwings', when the Moon is closer to Earth in its orbit - something known as perigee - and about 14% brighter than normal," the statement said. "It is also the second full moon of the month, known as the 'blue moon', and the superlate will pass through the shadow of the Earth with a total eclipse, while the moon is in the earth's shadow, it will have a reddish, as 'blood moon'. " Here in Brazil, however, we will only be able to see the superlum, says Claudio Bevilacqua, an astronomer and physicist at the Astronomical Observatory of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Nearly all of Latin America and most of Africa and Western Europe are also in the zone that will not be able to see the eclipse, as much by the time zone as by the terrestrial orbit
