Lunar Eclipse: View of Mars & Moon from Iran
Omid: "The Milky Way galaxy and the red Full Moon beside Mars on a calm night in Shahrud's Chah-e Jam Desert, created one of the most beautiful nights..."
Shahrud is a city and capital of Shahrud County, Semnan Province, Iran.
Situated about an altitude of 4413 ft (1345 m), it is located at latitude 36°25'N, longitude 055°01'E. Now, it is the largest city of Semnan Province.

Understanding Lunar Eclipses | NASA
It's not often that we get a chance to see our planet's shadow, but a lunar eclipse gives us a fleeting glimpse. During these rare events, the full Moon rapidly darkens and then glows red as it enters the Earth's shadow. Though a lunar eclipse can be seen only at night, it's worth staying up to catch the show. The next lunar eclipse that can be seen all over the U.S. will be on Jan. 21, 2019. It will also be a supermoon. The January 2019 a total lunar eclipse will be visible in the Americas, Europa, Africa and the Central Pacific.
