While the Earth itself blocks sunlight from shining directly into the umbral shadow, the atmosphere bends and scatters some of the light slipping around the edges, casting a glow into the shadow. Bluer tones of sunlight are filtered out by atmospheric gases, while redder shades can pass through more freely. The effect is similar to how a piece of red glass lets red light pass through while blocking other colors. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you stood on the moon during this eclipse and looked back at the Earth, you would see the dark disk of the Earth blocking the sun, rimmed with brilliant reddish light, the glow of all the sunrises and sunsets happening on Earth at that moment. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>When’s the Next Lunar Eclipse?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you miss this one, there won’t be another total lunar eclipse visible from the Americas until almost a year from now, on May 16, 2022.

Which could be a problem for some would-be observers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many of us don’t have a view of the eastern horizon — a building or a hill might be in the way,” Fraknoi notes. But by the time the eclipse ends, he says, the moon will have risen considerably in the sky, and it will be be easier to glimpse. If you want to see the entire eclipse, though, you should get to higher ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"how\">\u003c/a>Fraknoi also recommends checking the weather in advance, so you can get to a spot without clouds or fog should those be in the forecast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re in San Francisco, especially, the further east, south or north you go, the more likely you are to hit clear skies, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How can you see it?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"see\">\u003c/a>Your own peepers will do the trick — you don’t need a telescope or binoculars.

The moon will appear low on the eastern horizon as it rises. Which could be a problem for some would-be observers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many of us don’t have a view of the eastern horizon — a building or a hill might be in the way,” Fraknoi notes. But by the time the eclipse ends, he says, the moon will have risen considerably in the sky, and it will be be easier to glimpse. If you want to see the entire eclipse, though, you should get to higher ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"how\">\u003c/a>Fraknoi also recommends checking the weather in advance, so you can get to a spot without clouds or fog should those be in the forecast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re in San Francisco, especially, the further east, south or north you go, the more likely you are to hit clear skies, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How can you see it?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"see\">\u003c/a>Your own peepers will do the trick — you don’t need a telescope or binoculars.
