During a lunar eclipse, the moon is located directly opposite the sun, positioned in the Earth's shadow. This alignment occurs when the Earth is situated between the sun and the moon, causing the Earth's shadow to cover the moon. As a result, the moon may appear reddish during a total lunar eclipse, a phenomenon often referred to as a "blood moon."
