BEIJING Cowboys Leighton Vander Esch Jersey , Jan. 31 (Xinhua) -- Stargazers across China looked up at the moon to witness the rare sight of a ""super blue red Moon"" Wednesday night.


In Beijing, the total lunar eclipse began at 8:51 p.m. when the moon entered the shadow of Earth and appeared to be wrapped in coppery blue.


As the moon passed into Earth's shadow, it exhibited a reddish tinge as the sunlight was refracted while shining through the Earth's atmosphere. The red moon graced the sky in most parts of China for over an hour, according to the Beijing Planetarium.


According to Zhang Yang, an expert at the Purple Mountain Observatory in Nanjing Cowboys Dak Prescott Jersey , capital of east China's Jiangsu Province, the second full moon in a month is a blue moon. On Wednesday, the moon also happened to be rather close and bright because its orbit was near its closest point to Earth, thus called a supermoon.


""Supermoons occur rather often, but we rarely see it sync up with a lunar eclipse Cowboys Ezekiel Elliott Jersey , or blood moon,"" Zhang said.


On Wednesday night, the cosmic sight was seen in most parts of China where the weather was clear. The western parts of Tibet Autonomous Region and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region may have missed the beginning of the lunar eclipse, according to Zhang.


Popular video sites provided live broadcasts of the ""super blue red moon."" People shared their ""moon moments"" on social media, and pictures of the lunar eclipse went viral on the Internet.


Over 1 Women's Chaz Green Jersey ,000 people gathered at the Beijing Planetarium to use the equipments to watch the moon. Many parents brought their children for a lesson in science.


Wei Xiaofan, 37, is an ardent fan of astronomy. ""I wouldn't miss each lunar eclipse, because each time the moon is in a different charm,"" he said.


""The sky is the most beautiful and most profound field where there is an immense amount to be learnt Women's Byron Jones Jersey ,"" said Hai Jintao, an expert in material science, at the planetarium.


Fans and astronomers also gathered at Lijiang observatory in Lijiang city in southwest China's Yunnan Province. ""I'm here to observe the optical telescope here, because it is one of Asia's largest. It is a good place to take pictures of the moon tonight,"" said Masaoki Hagino Women's Maliek Collins Jersey , an expert in astronomy from Japan.


The Lijiang observatory is located at Gaomei village in Yulong Naxi Autonomous County.


Chinese folklore once interpreted the lunar eclipse as the moon being eaten up by a heavenly dog, and people would play drums and burn fireworks to drive the heavenly dog away.

Olivier Giroud is primed to join Chelsea from Arsenal for ￡17.5m on deadline day, a move that will allow the completion of a chain of transfers that takes Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to the Emirates Stadium and Michy Batshuayi to Borussia Dortmund.


Agreement was reached in principle between the two London clubs after a day of exhaustive talks, with Arsenal anxious to conclude their own club record ￡55.5m move for Aubameyang. Even so, Giroud had still been included in Arsène Wenger’s 19-man match-day squad for Tuesday’s Premier League game at Swansea Women's Jaylon Smith Jersey , which the France international began on the bench.




The 31-year-old’s priority has long been to enjoy greater playing opportunity before the World Cup, having started a solitary top-flight game this season following the ￡52.7m arrival of his compatriot Alexandre Lacazette from Lyon last summer.


Giroud will back himself to make a mark at his new club in what promises to be a fight for minutes with álvaro Morata as Chelsea are in effect scrapping their established policy of not signing players in their 30s on long-term deals. Giroud is understood to have verbally agreed personal terms on the switch and is set to undergo a medical on Wednesday.


Arsenal, who have already taken Henrikh Mkhitaryan from Manchester United this month in exchange for Alexis Sánchez, had not been inclined to sell Giroud to a direct rival for a top-four Premier League finish. But their determination to set in train the deal for Aubameyang has forced them to compromise.


They have also had to take a hit on the fee, having originally wanted closer to ￡30m. Talks had appeared to hit an impasse on Monday evening but resumed on Tuesday in an attempt to smooth the wheels of the various deals. The ￡17.5m fee for Giroud is inclusive of add-ons.




Arsenal’s move for Aubameyang had gathered pace earlier in the day when Dortmund granted the forward permission to fly to England in order to undergo a medical and conclude the finer details of a club-record deal at London Colney. The transfer has been driven by Arsenal’s new head of recruitment Women's Xavier Woods Jersey , Sven Mislintat, who previously worked for Dortmund. He had been instrumental in taking Aubameyang to the Bundesliga from Saint-étienne and, with the player having made clear he was keen on the move, discussions had progressed over the past fortnight.


Yet they could be concluded successfully only once Dortmund had secured their own replacement and, having initially considered Giroud Women's Jourdan Lewis Jersey , they opted to pursue Batshuayi.




Once Chelsea had opened talks over Giroud, Batshuayi was free to discuss the terms of a loan with Dortmund – the clubs had agreed a deal in principle – though he still trained with Antonio Conte’s squad on Tuesday and, with Morata currently injured, was expected to start Wednesday’s game against Bournemouth.


“He trained well and I prepared the game with him,” said Conte Women's Chidobe Awuzie Jersey , who had spoken to Batshuayi before training to explain the situation. “It’s not the best situation to face but we have to. I have Morata injured and I don’t have other options. It’s not been easy to prepare.”


Chelsea on Tuesday night completed the signing of the Roma wing-back Emerson Palmieri for an initial ￡17m. Conte, who has made clear he has limited input into Chelsea’s transfer policy, had earlier suggested he had
