As people around the world were waiting to witness the mega cosmic event - Super Blood Moon, many also fell for a fake video that was being circulated online. A 30-second video surfaced on the internet which showed a giant Moon eclipsing the Sun. The video was allegedly said to be from the Artic and seems to be at a very close distance from the surface of the Earth. However, the viral video is fake.
Origin
A video showing a gigantic moon rolling across the Arctic sky and briefly blocking out the sun has gone viral, with many claiming it is real. The moon in the video is very large, and appears to be extremely close to earth, moving at an unnaturally fast speed across the sky.
The video went viral around the same time that many people in parts of the world saw the first total lunar eclipse in more than two years. At the same time, on May 26, 2021, the world encountered a Super Flower Blood Moon.
A “blood moon” occurs when the moon takes on a red hue as it aligns with the sun and Earth and passes fully into Earth’s shadow. The moon is also at its closest point in its orbit to the earth, making it appear larger and brighter than normal, earning it the title “super.” The first full moon in the month of May is also given the title “flower moon.”
