What is a different about a lunar eclipse and a solar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse is where the moon passes behind the Earth. It is only visual during the night when the moon can be seen. Hence, it will always be a full moon. The moon will have an orange-red color, due to the refraction from the sun. The next lunar eclipse will be in December 2010. A solar eclipse is where the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth. During a partial solar eclipse, only parts of the sun are out of view from Earth, but during a total solar eclipse, the sun is fully blocked; however, solar eclipses are rare and can only be seen from certain places during certain times. The next solar eclipse will be in 2012.
