Super Blood Moon Photo Contest
This Sunday, Sept. 27 a Super Blood Moon will be visible in the U.S. and much of the world. This is the first time in more than 30 years that you’ll be able to witness a supermoon in combination with a lunar eclipse!
What is a supermoon? It’s a new or full moon that occurs when it is at, or near its closest approach to Earth. This event, combined with Earth’s shadow slowly swallowing the moon during the lunar eclipse, will provide for a spectacular night.
To make this lunar event even more exciting (not that it really needed it), we will be hosting a photo contest! During the event, we invite you to send us your best image of the Super Blood Moon on our Facebook page. Enter HERE.
After the entry window is closed, six finalists will be selected. These finalists will have their image voted on by the public. The winning image will be featured on our official social media platforms and on NASA.gov.
Are you interested? Here are the details:
Contest Entry Opens: Sept. 27 at 10:00 p.m. EDT
