HEY STAR GAZERS!

TRACE HERE, TO HELP YOU GLIMPSE THE PENUMBRAL
LUNAR ECLIPSE PASSING OVER NORTH AMERICA THIS

WEEK ON INDEPENDENCE DAY!

THIS WILL BE A PENUMBRAL LUNAR ECLIPSE, MEANING
THE MOON WILL SLIDE INTO THE EARTH S SHADOW.

HERE S WHAT YOU LL SEE FROM THE EASTERN
SEABOARD.

AROUND ELEVEN THIRTY PM THE MOON WILL START
TO FALL INTO EARTH S SHADOW, AND IT WILL

PEAK BY TWELVE-THIRTY AM.

THE PENUMBRAL ECLIPSE MEANS THE MOON IS ONLY
GETTING HIT BY EARTH S LIGHTER OUTER SHADOW,

SO IT WON T BE TOTALLY COVERED, BUT WE RE
LOOKING UP AT OUR OWN SHADOW!

ISN T THAT COOL?!

EVERY SIX MONTHS, EARTH IS TREATED TO BOTH
SOLAR AND LUNAR ECLIPSES.

BUT TIMING AND LOCATION IS EVERYTHING.

IN MAY OF NEXT YEAR WE LL HAVE A TOTAL LUNAR
ECLIPSE, BUT NORTH AMERICA WILL GET ANOTHER

PENUMBRAL ECLIPSE IN NOVEMBER, SO DON T
MISS IT, AND KEEP LOOKIN UP!
