"I think that we just better not let down our guard," Nelson added.
Today is the first Lunar Eclipse of 2018. The eclipse, known as Chandra Grahan in India, is unique because it is the first time in 152 years that three phases of the moon – Blood moon, Blue moon and Supermoon – have coincided.
In India, the eclipse will last for about 3 hours from 5.18 pm to 8.41 pm.
Many in India believe that no new venture should be commenced during an eclipse phase, including the idols of gods. It is also believed that food should not be consumed.
