Eclipse of the Moon

Tomorrow night, around 7pm to 7.30pm ish, an eclipse of the moon will happen.

What happens is, the shadow of the earth will fall onto the moon. Therefore, the moon will be dark. It is going to be a full moon tomorrow night but because of the eclipse, the moon will be darkened by the shadow.

Eclipse of the moon is not as exciting as the eclipse of the sun. But it is as significant as well.
