Explanation for the lunar eclipse?
Apr 15, 2014, 9:08 AM
|
|
I couldn't find anything. Why does the moon get dark during an eclipse? Does it lose energy and have to charge back up or something?

It's a blood moon, meaning you should kill yourself.***

I didn't ask about the red moon, I know why that is.
Apr 15, 2014, 9:33 AM

|
It's because the light is being scattered by particles in the Earth's atmosphere, lengthening its wavelength to a red color.

Further clarificaiton: shorter wavelengths are more likely

to be scattered, so a higher proportion of the light we receive on the surface of the Earth is of a longer wavelength, i.e. red.

Occlusion, as in to prevent the passage of light. Kill yourself.
