Enero se despide con una foto de portada. Este miércoles 31 tuvo lugar un evento astronómico que es muy inusual, ya que reúne cuatro fenómenos al mismo tiempo: una , una luna de sangre, una luna azul y un eclipse lunar. Usuarios en y otras redes sociales están atentos a la transmisión del evento.

La última vez que ocurrió algo igual fue en 1866, hace ya 150 años, y la próxima vez que podremos verlo nuevamente será dentro 19 años, el 31 de enero de 1866.

Lo más llamativo visualmente de este fenómeno astronómico fue la longitud (mayor a lo habitual) y el color rojizo del que se tiñe nuestro satélite. Los interesados, que también siguieron el espectáculo en facebook, no necesitaron ningún tipo de lente especial para poder observar la Luna.
