People were treated to some stunning views of the first full moon of 2020 overnight - at the same time as a lunar eclipse.
Those looking up into the night sky on Friday night, (January 10) weather permitting, would have seen a "penumbral lunar eclipse" which happens when the moon passes through the Earth's shadow.
A full moon takes place when the moon is located on the opposite side of the Earth as the sun, meaning its face is fully illuminated.
In early Native American tribes, this particular full moon was known as the 'Full Wolf Moon' because this was the time of year when hungry wolf packs howled outside their camps, the Mirror reports.
Nottinghamshire Live asked readers to send in their pictures of the moon overnight.
Here's a selection of some of the best:
If you missed the event, thankfully there’s not too long to wait to see another full moon.
On February 9, the 'Full Snow Moon' will coincide with a supermoon, meaning the fully illuminated moon will appear even larger in the night sky.
