A total lunar eclipse — called a blood moon because of its red shadowy hue — unfolded Sunday night and early Monday, local time.

It was the year’s second total lunar eclipse and this time Asia had the best seats.

Residents in the Middle Eastern cities of Dubai, Jerusalem and Baghdad got a prime view as Earth’s shadow obscured this weekend’s full moon as the home planet lined up perfectly between the moon and the sun.

The spectacle will last one hour and 22 minutes and the entire show — starting with the first dusky bite of the moon — will span more than five hours.

The shorter total lunar eclipse in March offered prime viewing in the Americas.

The entire eclipse will be visible in Asia — from Saudi Arabia to the Philippines, as far north as the Arctic Ocean all the way down to Antarctica — as well as parts of East Africa and the western half of Australia.

The rest of Africa and Australia, as well as Europe, will be treated to some but not all of the action.

Tidbits will be visible from the Brazilian coast and part of Alaska.

The moon’s vanishing act will be followed two weeks later by a partial solar eclipse visible from New Zealand, a sliver of Australia and Antarctica.
