A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through Earth's shadow as it orbits around our planet, sometimes appearing reddish and earning the nickname "blood moon." These events happen during specific times called eclipse seasons when the Moon's orbit aligns with Earth and the Sun, and the exact type and duration of the eclipse depends on how close the Moon is to certain points in its orbital path.
