BTW: I should mention that regarding the "Blood Red Moon", Lunar eclipses are Not always red, in the 1990's Mt. Pinatubo in the Philippines blew up (Volcanic) putting so much ash in the stratosphere, blocking out the red light from planet Earth to the moon. the result was a Black disappearing moon for a few eclipses later..
Readie Righteous (host) 2:31:28 PM
