What is a total lunar eclipse?

When the Sun, Earth, and Moon align in a way such that the Moon passes into the Earth's shadow, a lunar eclipse occurs. A total lunar eclipse is one in which the entire Moon falls within the darkest part of Earth's shadow, or the umbra. 

When the Moon and the Sun are on the opposite sides of Earth, and the planet casts a complete shadow over its natural satellite, a total lunar eclipse occurs. The Moon is completely obscured by the Earth’s umbra during a total lunar eclipse.

How to watch the total lunar eclipse
