PHOTOS: Last Night's 'Super Blue Blood Moon' as Seen from China

Eager moonwatchers around the globe trekked outside last night, bringing along their cameras, binoculars and telescopes to witness the 'Super Blue Blood Moon.' 

A rare phenomenon, the sight occurs when a blue moon coincides with a supermoon and a total lunar eclipse, otherwise known as a 'blood moon' due to its reddish hue. It's the first time the combination has happened since 1982, and it won't occur again until 2037.

Here's a roundup of stunning snapshots of last night's rare celestial event from around China.

Pollution strikes again! Unfortunately, Shanghairen couldn't really get a good view of the moon last night because it was blocked by haze. Womp womp.
