On August 27–28, many people may see this sky show. The full moon will slowly grow dark. This is a lunar eclipse. Earth’s shadow covers part of the moon. It may also look a little red. This change can take a few hours. (science.nasa.gov)
You can make a model at home. Use a lamp and a small ball. The lamp is the sun. Your head is Earth. Move the ball behind your head. Your head blocks the lamp’s light. The ball becomes dark, like the moon. Now, look up and enjoy the real sky.
