Get Ready for a Lunar Eclipse! (Just Not in the US)
A lunar eclipse will grace the skies on Sunday, September 7, 2025, as Earth positions itself perfectly between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow over the lunar surface. While much of the world, including parts of Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America, will have a front-row seat to this celestial show, the U.S. will unfortunately miss out this time.
Lunar vs. Solar Eclipse: What’s the Difference?
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon. A solar eclipse, conversely, happens when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, obscuring the Sun from our view. Simply put, a lunar eclipse changes the Moon’s appearance, while a solar eclipse changes the Sun’s.
