The moon looks badass

Explain this red moon to me, nerds. I didn't hear anything about a lunar eclipse being tonight.

This effect is caused by the atmosphere of the earth. The reason for the orange color is due to the scattering of light by the atmosphere. When the moon is near the horizon, the moonlight must pass through much more atmosphere than when themoon is directly overhead.

The red hue you are seeing is Martian soil ejected out into the interplanetary zone by the recent excess solar flare activity.
Eventually (over millions of years) this soil will coalesce into a belt (or belts) around the Earth similar to Saturn's rings.
I thought everybody knew about this.

I'm going to wait on Jon55's explanation before I make any assumptions.

Every night I take my dog out I have a nice stare at the moon. It's fascinating.

Can you just take a pic and post? I don't feel like getting back up again.
