Eclipses Do you know which is lunar and which is solar? Lunar Eclipse Solar Eclipse

Watch this short video for a summary of eclipses!

Check your diagrams in your book. Did you get them right? Lunar Eclipse Shadow of Earth falls onto the moon Can only happen during a full moon

During totality, the moon looks coppery-red because the longer, red wavelengths of light bend through Earth’s atmosphere to reflect off the moon. The next lunar eclipse will be on September 28 th !

Solar Eclipse Moon is in the perfect position to completely block the sun from Earth It can only happen during a new moon.

Total Solar Eclipse

The next solar eclipse visible in the US will occur Aug. 21 st, Unlike a lunar eclipse which is visible everywhere on Earth that can see the moon, solar eclipses can only be seen in the narrow band over which the moon’s shadow passes. (See blue stripe, above.) Book your vacation now!

In your Journal, answer these questions: 1. What is an eclipse? 2. What causes an eclipse? 3. How has your understanding of eclipses changed since you answered these same questions in class today?

Which is real and which is fake?

FAKE! This was done by an artist. To see a total solar eclipse from orbit, the spacecraft would have to be in the moon’s umbra. This is possible, but maybe not probably. This photo is definitely a fake. You would not see stars nor the Milky Way as shown here. REAL! This photo was taken from the Russian space station Mir. It is showing the shadow of the moon on Earth. The people in this shadow (umbra) would have seen the eclipse!

This is an actual photo of a solar eclipse taken from the ISS. Notice you cannot see any stars. The sun is so bright it washed out the stars in the background. This would have been taken as the ISS was passing through the penumbra. This is the best photo I could find on NASA’s website, which leads me to assume that so far the ISS has not happened to be in the umbra during a total eclipse. Not as spectacular as the other, but still pretty sweet!
