A lunar eclipse happens when Earth is situated between the Moon and the Sun, causing the Earth’s shadow to fall on the surface of the moon and turn it a rusty red color. Each lunar eclipse is visible from half of Earth, according to the NASA.
A total lunar eclipse is also commonly referred to as a “blood moon.”
According to NASA, the totality phase, when the Earth’s shadow fully covers the moon, is expected to last about one hour and 22 minutes. Overall, it will take three hours and 29 minutes for Earth to pass in front of the moon.
The stages of the eclipse include penumbral and umbral phases, which refer to the two main parts of the shadow that the moon casts. The umbra is a darker inner shadow and the penumbra is a fainter outer shadow.
A total lunar eclipse is a perfect alignment between Earth, the moon and sun. It is different from a partial lunar eclipse, which is an imperfect alignment between the three celestial bodies.
During a total lunar eclipse, the moon moves into the Earth’s inner shadow, which is known as the umbra. Some of the sunlight passing through Earth dimly lights the moon as a result.
Lunar eclipses occur at the full moon phase, according to the NASA.
