TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE MOON
THIS WEEK.
It will be Visible Throughout the
United States.

The most important event of the
moon for the American amateur as
tronomer is the total eclipse of the
noon which takes place on the night
of the 10th and 18th. Though lunar
eclipses are not of rare occurrence,
it is almost three years since we
have been able to observe one that
was total. Since this is so, we may
well spend some time in discussing
the u and phenomena of such an
event, even though they may be ia
miliar to many of our readers.
Everyone knows that eclipses of
the moon are caused by her passage
through the earth's shadow. This
shadow extends from the earth in ex-
actly the opposite direction to the
sun, and, since the sun is larger than
the earth, it tapers off to a point
which is about four times as far
away as the moons orbit. For an
observer situated anywhere within it,
the earth hides the sun completely.
If the moons orbit were in the
plane of the eclipse we would have
an eclipse at every full moon. But
as it is actually considerably inclin-
ed, The moon usually passes north or
south of the shadow, and 50 escapes
eclipse.
At the present full moon the
moons path leads almost centrally
through the shadow, and she is COM
pletely immersed in it for an hour
and a half. The circumstances of
the eclipS is as follows, the dates
being given in Eastern standard
time:
Moon enters penumbra, October
Is, 1917 p. M.
Moon enters shadow, October 16,
11.17 p. m.
Total eclipse begins October II,
1919 a. M.
Total eclipse ends October II, 1.48
a. m.
Moon leaves shadow October II,
SO a. m.
