And we dodged the asteroid - HURRAH! Unsurprisingly there were a load of star gazers checking out last night's 'Super Blood Moon' at around 2:30am, and thankfully they posted their findings on Twitter so anyone in the land of nod doesn't feel like they've missed out on the extremely rare event. Much.
Don't worry, the next one is due in 2033, so there's plenty of time to set your alarm clocks.
