Super Blue Blood Moon

Stargazing above Garden City is a great place to see the stars with little obstruction from light pollution, Which also makes Bear Lake the best place to see the super blue blood moon eclipse in the early morning of Jan. 31 2018.

A Blue Moon is when two full moons happen in the same calendar month; lunar eclipses occur when the moon passes into Earth's shadow; and supermoons happen when the moon's perigee — its closest approach to Earth in a single orbit — coincides with a full moon. In this case, the supermoon also happens to be the day of the lunar eclipse.
