==========================================
BAJA NIGHT SKY #60: Lunar Eclipse: A Full Moon, with
Mars just above it, and Spica nearby in moonglow, will rise at
7:24pm Monday evening. The Earth casts two conical shadows into
space that are more than twice as long as the distance to the moon.
All light from the sun is blocked in the inner, shorter shadow or
umbra; only a portion of sunlight is blocked in the penumbra, the
larger shadow (the bowl of a large spoon held under a table lamp
will cast both shadows onto the table). A lunar eclipse occurs when
a full Moon passes between the Earth and Sun, and through Earth's
umbral shadow. Usually it passes above or below this shadow. Monday
evening, when the Full Moon is high in the SE, it enters the
penumbra at 10:52pm, and the umbra at 11:58pm. Careful observers
might see the penumbral shadow creeping across the Moon. Totality
begins at 1:07am Tuesday morning, and lasts for 78 minutes until
2:25am. The moon exits the penumbra at 3:33am. If there are no
clouds, there should be a great show all evening; from midnight
through totality, fainter stars will appear as the sky slowly
darkens. At totality, the eclipsed Moon will be high in the southern
sky. Sitting on the horizon below the moon, the Southern Cross will
stand upright, visible for a short time in the darker sky. Two fists
above the South point on the horizon, the largest, brightest
globular cluster orbiting the Milky Way Galaxy, Omega Centauri,
gives off a hazy glow. The right and top star of the Southern Cross
point to the upper left at this cluster. Telescopes with diameters
of 6 inches or more can resolve the glow into a ball of millions of
ancient stars. In the SE, Scorpio's tail is sitting on the horizon.
To the left of the stinger stars, Ptolemy's Cluster sparkles through
binoculars. To the right of Antares, the heart of the scorpion,
there is another globular cluster. There are more than 50 other
nebulae, star clusters, and galaxies for telescope users to explore
in this small region of sky. In a short time, moonlight will once
again blot out the fainter objects in the night sky. On March 1,
1504, his men prisoners on a Caribbean island, Columbus frightened
Indians into providing them with food and water with the threat of
depriving them of the light of the Moon. They laughed at him until
the eclipse, which he knew was imminent, began. Early indigenous
Mexicans believed the Sun Swallowed the Moon during a lunar eclipse,
and made loud noises to stop it. Some people still fear lunar
eclipses. If you are superstitious, you might want to take
precautions. Cover up wells and remain indoors. If the eclipse lasts
longer than you find comfortable, beating on pots and pans with a
wooden spoon might bring it to an end. By such means, I have never
had to endure a lunar eclipse longer than 100 minutes. Night-Sky Tom
