STARGAZERS in the Tyne Valley had the chance to catch a glimpse of a rare lunar eclipse on Monday morning.
Anyone hoping to see the eclipse had to be up early - the moon passed through the Earth's shadow between 3.35am and 6.51am on January 21, creating a total lunar eclipse.
A rare combination of factors came together to produce a phenononom known as a 'super blood wolf moon.'
The eclipse made the moon's surface appear red, which is known as a bloodmoon. At the same time, the moon was slightly closer to Earth than usual, making it appear bigger and brighter - known as a supermoon.
Finally, January's full moon is sometimes known as the wolf moon - leading to the name super blood wolf moon.
If you were one of those who woke early to see the moon, send us your pictures.
