Blood Moon on the Horizon

Created on September 22, 2015

A Blood moon known as a ‘tetrad’ will take place on September 28th, which is just the fourth lunar eclipse in two years.

The rare event will make the moon look up to 14% larger because it is as close to the earth than it will ever be in its elliptical orbit. However there is a chance that the eclipse won’t be visible from New Zealand and as always viewing always depends on weather conditions.

So why will the moon be a ‘blood’ red colour? When the earth eclipses a full moon the direct sunlight is blocked, but the suns rays still light up the moon. However this light has already travelled through the Earths atmosphere first, and hence causing the totally eclipsed moon to look red or brownish.

Shaun Johnson

Shaun Johnson

The person I want to meet is Shaun Johnson .I want to meet him because he plays for the Warriors and he is the kicker of the team. He was part of the junior Warriors side that won the Toyota cup in 2010 and played for the  NRL all stars in 2013.

He always believed in his dream to become a rugby league player and never gave up. He didn't want to go to another team so he has stayed in the Warriors. I want Shaun Johnson  to visit my room because I think he would be a great person to meet.
