ECLIPSE OF THE MOON coming next week to the West

00:06.940 --> 00:13.346 align:left position:72.5% line:83% size:17.5%
Coast on May 26! Here s what you need to know
The full eclipse will happen at exactly 11:11 UTC

00:13.446 --> 00:18.785 align:left position:77.5% line:83% size:12.5%
or 4:11am Pacific time. Snap a pic of the
screen! Because of time zones Totality

00:18.885 --> 00:23.656 align:left position:75% line:83% size:15%
will happen at different times depending on
your location. Hawaii will get a GREAT show,

00:23.757 --> 00:27.260 align:left position:82.5% line:83% size:7.5%
but if you re east of the Mississippi
you ll only get a partial eclipse.

00:27.360 --> 00:31.898 align:left position:77.5% line:83% size:12.5%
Total lunar eclipses happen because every
2.5 years the orbits align so the Earth

00:31.998 --> 00:36.703 align:left position:72.5% line:83% size:17.5%
is exactly between the sun and the moon. When
that happens our planet s shadow or UMBRA falls

00:36.803 --> 00:41.508 align:left position:72.5% line:83% size:17.5%
entirely across the face of the moon turning
it a shade of rusty pink for about 15 minutes.

00:41.608 --> 00:46.946 align:left position:75% line:83% size:15%
That said, the full eclipse can take HOURS,
as the edges of our shadow or PENUMBRA slowly

00:47.047 --> 00:51.047 align:left position:77.5% line:83% size:12.5%
overtakes the moon. So, hit the sky early
and enjoy the show and KEEP LOOKIN UP!
