The science and stories behind the blood moon
Recently, the Pallas's cat has gained popularity thanks to memes on the internet. People have fallen in love with its chubby appearance and expressive face. As a result, more and more people are becoming interested in learning about this animal.
If it is a clear night on September 8, anyone in Taiwan who looks up at the sky will be able to see an incredible event. On that night, a shadow will slowly move across the Moon and cause it to appear red. This is because a lunar eclipse will be taking place.
Lunar eclipses are rather regular events that can occur all around the world. During a lunar eclipse, the Earth is positioned directly between the Sun and the Moon. When this happens, the Moon's access to the Sun's light is blocked and the Earth casts a shadow over its surface. As a result, the Moon appears darker. Many people describe the Moon's appearance during a total lunar eclipse as glowing red. This is why these lunar eclipses are also called blood moons.
血月背後的科學與故事
如果九月八日那天晚上天氣晴朗，任何人在臺灣抬頭仰望夜空將能看到一個不可思議的現象。那晚，一道陰影會慢慢橫越月亮表面，使月亮呈現紅色。這是因為月食正在發生。
月食是相當常見的現象，在世界各地都有可能發生。在月食期間，地球正好位於太陽和月亮之間。當這種情況發生時，月亮無法接收到太陽的光線，且地球會在其表面上投射陰影。因此，月亮看起來較黯淡。許多人描述月全食時的月亮像是在發出紅光。這就是為什麼這種月食也被稱為血月。
