In Pictures: The Lunar Eclipse Across The World

The world is witnessing a lunar eclipse on Tuesday. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align in a way that the Moon passes into Earth’s shadow. It's called a 'blood moon' as the Moon acquires a reddish-orange colour from the light of Earth's sunsets and sunrises and at the peak of the eclipse.
