第2611期:Total Lunar Eclipse to Turn Moon Red
Description
A total lunar eclipse is about to make the moon appear a reddish color across the Western Hemisphere.
月食的总圆环即将使月亮在整个西半球看起来是红色的。
The event will happen Thursday night into Friday morning. The best places to see the eclipse will be in North America and South America. Parts of Africa and Europe may also get brief views.
该活动将在星期四晚上至星期五早上举行。 观看日食的最佳场所将在北美和南美。 非洲和欧洲的部分地区也可能会得到简短的看法。
A lunar eclipse happens when the sun, Earth, and moon line up just right, with Earth positioned between the sun and moon. This causes the Earth to create a shadow on the moon. In a total lunar eclipse, the Earth’s shadow covers all of the moon.

Another kind of eclipse is a solar eclipse. In a solar eclipse, the moon gets in a position where it blocks light from the sun, causing a partial or full shadow on Earth.
日食的另一种日食是日食。 在日食中,月亮处于遮挡太阳的光线的位置,在地球上造成部分或全面的阴影。
A total lunar eclipse can also be called a blood moon. It makes the moon appear reddish-orange, similar to the element copper. The color comes from small amounts of sunlight passing through the Earth’s atmosphere.
总月食也可以称为血月。 它使月亮显得红橙色,类似于元素铜。 颜色来自少量穿过地球大气层的阳光。
The American space agency NASA says lunar and solar eclipses happen between four and seven times a year. The last total lunar eclipse was in 2022.
美国航天局NASA说,月球和太阳日食每年发生四次至七次。 最后的月食是2022年。
This one will be visible for about one hour starting Friday morning at 2:26 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). The time when the Earth’s shadow covers all
