A Blood moon known as a ‘tetrad’ will take place on September 28th, which is just the fourth lunar eclipse in two years.
The rare event will make the moon look up to 14% larger because it is as close to the earth than it will ever be in its elliptical orbit. However there is a chance that the eclipse won’t be visible from New Zealand and as always viewing always depends on weather conditions.
So why will the moon be a ‘blood’ red colour? When the earth eclipses a full moon the direct sunlight is blocked, but the suns rays still light up the moon. However this light has already travelled through the Earths atmosphere first, and hence causing the totally eclipsed moon to look red or brownish.
New Zealand heavy wait boxer Joseph Parker extended his unbeaten professional record with a technical knock out against 45-year-old veteran Kali Meehan. Parker’s professional record now stands at 16-0.
On Saturday all I did is clean and I didn't get paid for it, I did the dishes, beds, laundry, vacuuming (sometimes), and for all that I only got to go outside. It would be a bit nice to get paid at least $50. My luck finally changed when my mum and I went to my Aunt's house and there I helped made dinner. We had sausages, patties, steak, with some buns and macaroni salad.
Yester we walked up to the multipurpose room at 9:30am for a Duffy assembly. There we met a man named Myron Simpson and he told us about his achievements in his life and how he got to make his own muesli company. Myron Simpson started riding bikes when he was 3 and started racing for NZ when he was 8. Myron was also awarded a silver medal in the 2007 world champs in Mexico.
