Skywatchers in Europe and Africa were first to see the fantastic eclipse.
This particular eclipse occurred during what's called a "micro" moon, or the opposite of a super moon.
This happens because the moon's orbit isn't perfectly circular, so it appears larger at times and smaller at others during its roughly 29-day-long orbit around Earth.
While the eclipse wasn't visible in North America, viewers in the Eastern Hemisphere were treated to a stunning lunar vista.

It was certainly a dazzling display of color.
If the eclipse looks stunning from Earth, it looks even more surreal to a viewer actually on the moon.
According to a NASA visualization, Earth will look like it's surrounded by a ring of fire — with its sunset and sunrise connected in a loop.
But for most of us, this stunning view of the moon on our home turf is plenty sufficient.
