Kirk here with a post-eclipse note on why a reddish moon was visible last night even when it was in the shadow of the earth. As you can see in the NASA image I’ve borrowed for this post, the earth’s atmosphere functioned as a prism that projected red light on the moon. That’s why it didn’t disappear in the shadow and why it looked red.
By the way, when light enters our atmosphere a similar phenomenon paints the sky blue. If the angle were different, we’d have a red sky instead of a blue one. ;)
P.S. I heard a little about this on an American radio segment about the eclipse. In North America people had to get up early to see it. I was glad to be able to see it here without losing any sleep.
