It's Here!

Yesterday, I posted about the lunar eclipse. At this time the moon has been covered by Earth's Umbra. I've been watching the moon change its shape. At 6:15 AM I woke up to see the lunar eclipse. That time the eclipse didn't start. After a few minutes, the moon changed a bit. The eclipse had started. Every few minutes the moon had changed.

Half an Hour later...

The moon had passed the halfway and it looked like a tongue. After passing halfway, Earth Umbra went slower, so it took more time to finish.

After 10 minutes...

The Final White Part at the South-West Part

The sun had risen and the moon was just about to disappear. There was the final white part at the south-west part.

Some seconds later...

The Earth's Umbra covered the moon in seconds. It was really fast and we all saw it. The moon had disappeared. The sun had risen. We tried to look around and we couldn't see the moon.

Eclipses!

For today's post, we are looking at Eclipses. We are focusing on the two eclipses, Lunar Eclipse and Solar Eclipse. Well, there was a Solar Eclipse last year in America on 21 August 2017. I had posted a post about the Solar Eclipse. It was known as 'The Great American Eclipse". If you haven't seen the last post about the Car in Space, click here. In this post, I have learnt something new too. I learnt that there are four types of Solar Eclipses. If you have learnt something new comment down below. I hope you like my post about Eclipses. Have a cool day!! Bye!!
