This Week in Space 11

On the night of May 15, the moon will slip into the Earth's shadow for a remarkable celestial event: a blood moon eclipse. It's not as sinister as it sounds but will be a great show late in the evening. We'll tell you all about it and how to watch it, as well as the Great Mars Quake, moon plants, and the black hole at the center of the galaxy!
