A total lunar eclipse that produced a deep red blood moon made its way across the night sky Sunday night into Monday morning, giving stargazers a dramatic, multi-part show.

Around 9:30 p.m. ET the moon began to pass into Earth’s shadow. Within roughly two hours it had reached totality – or fully within in Earth’s shadow – and stayed there for some 85 minutes.

Yet, instead of going dark, the moon turned a dramatic red.
