"July’s Partial
Lunar Eclipse"
By Tim Linder
On the night of July 16—17
(Thursday night and Friday
morning) the moon will undergo
a partial lunar eclipse. A lunar
eclipse occurs when the moon
passes through the Earth’s
shadow. During the July 16 — 17
lunar eclipse shadow (see
accompanying diagram) and at
mid-eclipse about 55 percent of
the moon’s disk will be obscured.
I The Earth's shadow is
composed of two parts, the
UMBRA and the PENUMBRA.
The umbra is the darkest part of
the shadow where almost all of
the sun’s light is blocked out. The
umbra is encircled by the
penumbra, the lighter part of the
shadow in which only a small
part of the sun’s light is blocked
out. When the moon enters the
Earth's penumbral shadow only
a slight darkening of the moon
may be noticed. The real show
begins when the moon enters the
umbra. The moon will move
deeper and deeper into the dark
umbral shadow until, during this
particular eclipse, more than half
of the moon will be obscured.
After mid-eclipse the moon will
move slowly out of the Earth's
shadow.
Thursday night's lunar eclipse
will begin at 10:05 p m. when the
moon begins to move into the
penumbral shadow. The umbral
phase begins at 11:25 p.m. and
mid-eclipse occurs at 12:47 a.m.
The moon will leave the umbra at
2:09 a.m. and the penumbra at
3:28 a.m. When the eclipse begins
the moon will be high in the
southeast. This eclipse should be
very interesting to watch since
you do not need a telescope or
even binoculars to enjoy it
(although they would be helpful).
That’s it for this week, HAPPY
ECLIPSE-GAZING! 1!!!
