What scientific value does a lunar eclipse have?

Answer 1

According to NASA's website, total lunar eclipses have limited scientific value. Because they are beautiful events, however, they do help people to become interested in science. They also provide unique learning experiences for children, parents, and teachers to experience together. Unlike solar eclipses, lunar eclipses are totally safe to view with no protection for the eyes and need no special equipment for viewing, although using a pair of binoculars or telescope will bring out the moon's colors.
