Super blue blood moon photos show that it lived up to the hype

On Tuesday morning, a good number of people were treated to the beauty that is a rare super blue blood moon.

The event combined a super moon (when the moon is at its closest point to Earth), a blue moon (the second full moon of the month), and a blood moon (a total lunar eclipse) for a wondrous astronomical event visible to over half the globe, especially for those on the U.S. West Coast and in Australia, Northern Russia, Eastern Asia, and the Middle East.
