Lunar Eclipses

A lunar eclipse happens when the moon passes behind the earth and into its shadow. The Sun, Moon, and Earth will be lined up, and the Moon will be darkened for a few hours as it passes through the shadow.

Is it advised for pregnant ladies not to sleep during lunar eclipse?

This is completely unrelated. There are no known health effects of lunar eclipses, or solar eclipses for that matter, on people - pregnant or otherwise.

What is a lunar eclipse not visibleb everywhere on earth?

Because the moon itself is never visible everywhere on Earth at the same time.

When there is an eclipse going on, half of the Earth, and all of the people on

that half, are turned away from the moon, and looking the other way.

What are Solar and Lunar Eclipses?

An eclipse is when one object in space prevents light from the star reaching another object. In the case of a solar eclipse, the moon aligns between Earth and the sun, blocking the sun's light from reaching earth. During a lunar eclipse, the opposite occurs: Earth aligns between the moon and the sun, and prevents light from reaching it (where otherwise a full moon would have happened, the moon is actually completely darkened).

Partial eclipses occur when the objects are not quite aligned right, so only half (or any fraction except all or none) of the sun's light is blocked off.

what is.
A solar eclipse is were the moon passes in between the sun and earth. The moon blocks some or all of the sun light making the moon look like it has a halo around it.

A lunar eclipse is when the earth comes between the sun and moon. this then cause a shadow of the earth onto the moon. this can only happen at the time of a full moon and when the sun,earth and the moon are all lined up together.
A solar eclipse is caused when the Moon moves between the Earth and the Sun. The shadow can be partial or total. Because the much-smaller Moon is close to the Earth, it can appear the same size as the Sun. The three types of solar eclipse are partial, total, and annular, this being where the Moon appears slightly smaller and does not cover the entire disk.

A lunar eclipse is when the Earth's shadow passes over a full moon, darkening its surface. The Moon is immediately "behind" the Earth in its orbit. Lunar eclipses can be partial or total.

The alignment of Sun, Earth, and Moon happens 2 to 5 times a year for solar eclipses, but total eclipses occur about once every 18 months, and affect only a small area on the Earth's surface. Lunar eclipses happen every 6 months, but total eclipses (the whole Moon darkened) normally occur in cycles of three, followed by three partial lunar eclipses.

*When total solar eclipses occur, they are preceded or followed by a lunar eclipse, separated by a period of about 14-15 days. This is because the Moon is orbiting directly on the Earth-Sun plane at the time.
Lunar: The earth interrupts light shining on the moon Solar: The moon interrupts light from the sun
A lunar eclipse is when the Moon passes into the Earth's umbra, or total shadow. This can only happen at a full Moon when the Sun, Earth and the Moon are exactly in line.

A solar eclipse occurs when the Moonpasses between the Sun and the Earth, and the Moon fully or partially covers the Sun as viewed from some location on Earth.
Well a solar eclipses is when the moon covers the sun.

A lunar eclipse is when the earths shadow is on the moon and we cant see it!
A lunar eclipse is when the earth comes between sun and moon. Solar eclipse is when the moon comes between sun and earth..
A lunar eclipse is when the Sun, Moon and Earth align and the earth casts a shadow on the moon, while a solar eclipse is when the Moon is in front of the Earth and the sun is shining on the moon putting a crescent-like shape on the Earth until they are completely aligned.
There is two types of eclipse.

One is where the Moon gets in between the Sun and the Earth, and blocks out some of the sunlight reaching the Earth. A shadow is cast on the Earth.

This is called an eclipse of the Sun, otherwise known as a Solar Eclipse.

The other is where the Earth gets in between the Sun and the Moon. When the Moon moves into the shadow of the Earth, we call it an eclipse of the Moon. This is also known as a Lunar Eclipse.

How do the moon phases and solar and lunar eclipse?

First of all, moon phases are because of where the moon is in its orbit. If the moon is like this in the diagram

Key: E = Earth M = Moon s = Sun

M E S

the Sun's light will hit the moon and bounce back to earth to your eyes, being a full moon. However, if the moon is in this position

E M S

the light goes from the sun, hits the moon, bounces off the moon, and either goes back to the sun or goes somewhere near it, being a new moon. Anywhere between these positions makes a different phase. Here is a list of the phases:

New Moon, Waxing Crescent, Half Moon, Waxing Gibbous, Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Half Moon, Waning Crescent, New Moon.

Second of all, a solar eclipse is kind of like a New Moon, but a little different. The formation is like this

E M S

but they are lined up in the right way that the moon blocks the sun's light (Sometimes it completely blocks the light, other times it makes a golden ring in the sky from the outer edges of the sun not being blocked).

Third of all, a lunar eclipse is the opposite of a solar eclipse. It lines up like this:

M E S

The Sun's light still reaches us, but the shadow of the earth (big shadow, right?) makes it so no light reaches the moon. With no light to reflect, we can't even see it.

How difficult is it to change the O2 sensors on a 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS 3 ltr?

If I'm not mistaken...u have to take the valve cover off and it should be located right there

The GT and I didnt know a GS has a V6 option, but anyway they would be put in the same way, but you have (3) O2 Sensors! I don't know which you are replacing, But you have one on each exhaust manifold. The one on the front side (closest to the radiator) is almost in the middle of the manifold, has a couple wires and the wires lead to a square block connector, and is fairly easily removed with the sensor wrench. The other is a bit hidden. is is almost against the firewall on the left (Looking front to back on the car) protruding outward toward your left on the back manifold as you are currently looking at the car. That one will cost you a little blood to remove as quarters are a bit tight accessing it, you will need a swivel on your ratchet. That one also has a wire set that leads to a square block connector also. The third... underneath the car look past where the two exhaust pipes come together and you will see it protruding out of the exhaust pipe.

It is beyond me why you would need or even want to take the valve cover off, evidently he doesnt have a 3.0l, and still cant figure out why he wants you to take the valve cover off. Think he is lost :) But anyway that's where your (3) O2 Sensors are located at on the V6 3.0l on a GT and should be the same on your 3.0l.............

How do you change struts on a 2001 Mitshibushi Eclipse?

Step1 Lift the front end of the Eclipse with a floor jack, and support it by the frame with jack stands. Use a tire iron to loosen and remove the nuts holding on the wheels, and set the wheels aside. Pop the hood, and locate the upper strut mounting nuts in the frame. They're directly over the wheel wells.

Step2 Use a ratchet to remove the three upper mounting nuts connecting the strut to the frame, but don't touch the nut in the center yet. Under the Eclipse, find the damper fork at the bottom of the strut. The strut is a set of hardware behind the wheel hub that has a spring around it with the damper fork at the bottom. Remove the stabilizer link nut holding the top of the damper fork to the stabilizer bar. Unbolt the lower strut mounting bolt connecting the strut assembly to the damper fork with the ratchet and an adjustable wrench. Pull the strut out from under the car, and repeat this step on the other side.

Step3 Compress the coil spring on the top of the strut, and hold the piston rod or the stem directly below the upper hardware on the strut with a wrench while you remove the upper strut nut. Lay out each piece of the strut in the order you remove it from the assembly so you can put it back together without any problems: upper bracket assembly, spring pad, collar, upper bushing, cup, bump rubber, dust cover and coil spring. Repeat this process on the other strut assembly, and replace the shocks and any other parts showing wear. Reassemble the struts, set the dial on your torque wrench to 16 ft-lb and tighten the upper self-locking nut until you feel the wrench slip. Remove the spring compressor.

Step4 Position the strut in the damper fork. Insert the mounting bolt, and torque it to 70 ft-lb. Slide the strut studs through the holes in the frame, and torque the upper mounting nuts to 33 ft-lb. Attach the stabilizer link bar nut to the damper fork, and tighten it according to the specs for the model year of your Eclipse.

Step5 Mount the front wheels, and lower the front end of the Eclipse. Have a professional align the front end of the car.

Why is totality during lunar eclipse not altogether dark?

Earth's atmosphere refracts some light, mostly red light, into its shadow. This light falls on the moon's surface during a lunar eclipse, turning it red. If Earth did not have an atmosphere, the moon would go completely dark during a lunar eclipse.

When will the lunar eclipse be seen from Holland MI?

On the morning of Tuesday, December 21, a total lunar eclipse will be visible

everywhere in the USA.

Here are the times of a few highlights, given in Eastern Time since the question

comes from Michigan. Clocks in Central Time will read one hour earlier, Mountain

Time two hours earlier, Pacific Time 3 hours earlier.

1:32 AM (12:32 AM CT, 11:32 PM Monday night MT, 10:32 PM Monday night PT) :

Leading edge of the moon enters the umbra (totality).

2:40 AM ET: Moon completely within the umbra ... all eclipsed.

3:53 AM ET: Moon's leading edge exits the umbra (out of totality).

5:01 AM ET: Moon's trailing edge exits the umbra, completely out of totality.

Can you take picture of a lunar eclipse with a camera phone?

It is challenging to capture the detailed phases of a lunar eclipse with just a camera phone due to the limited capabilities of most phone cameras. However, you may be able to capture a basic image of the moon during the eclipse if you have a steady hand and sufficient zoom on your phone. For high-quality photos, consider using a digital camera or professional equipment.

Why is a lunar eclipse visible to the entire night side of the earth?

umm well a lunar eclipse is only visible at night hence the word lunar in it if you dont like this answer then make your own.

When was the last lunar eclipse in Colorado?

It was late at night on December 20 and early on the morning of December 21, 2010.

What are some good Nike lunar eclipse running shoes and are they expensive?

Iv'e personally heard the Lunar Eclipse+ 2 are very well made, quality running shoes. The lunar eclipse is a rather expensive shoe that can range from one-hundred dollars to one-hundred and thirty.

Where is between the Sun and the moon during a lunar eclipse?

When the Moon passes between Sun and Earth, the lunar shadow is seen as a solar eclipse on Earth. When Earth passes directly between Sun and Moon, its shadow creates a lunar eclipse. Lunar eclipses can only happen when the Moon is opposite the Sun in the sky, a monthly occurrence we know as a full Moon.

Why is it okay to look at a lunar eclipse and not a solar eclipse?

Unless it is at totality, which is a brief period of minutes to seconds, looking at a solar eclipse means looking at the sun. The sun emits very intense light which can cause permanent eye damage. By contrast watching a lunar eclipse merely requires looking at the moon.

What is the function of Semi Lunar?

They prevent backflow of blood back into the Left and Right Ventricles

What is the difference between lunar and solar cycles?

Yes. A full orbit is about 27 1/2 days; a lunar month (e.g., new moon to new moon) is about 29 1/2 days. The reason is that while the Moon orbits Earth, the position (direction) of the Sun in the sky changes.

Is it true that a total lunar eclipse occur when the moon passes through earths prenumbra?

No, a total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes completely through Earth's umbra, the central, darkest part of its shadow. During this event, the Earth is positioned directly between the Sun and the Moon, blocking direct sunlight from reaching the Moon. The penumbra is the outer part of the shadow, and while a lunar eclipse can occur when the Moon passes through the penumbra (resulting in a penumbral lunar eclipse), it does not cause the dramatic darkening seen in a total lunar eclipse.
