Ordinarily at full moon, our satellite Is so brilliant that It Is difficult to observe these occultatlons, especially of fainter stars, but the eclipse dims it so much that they can then be made.

A lunar eclip.se is very Interesting to watch, especially as the curved shadow of the earth crosses the moon surface. This, Incidentally. Is an excellent proof of the roundness of the earth, and was so recognized in early days. The shadow is always the arc of a circle Nothing but a sphere, of course, can always cast a round shadow. The red color of the eclipsed moon Is caused by the refraction or bending, of the light of the sun ty our atmosphere.

Without It. the shadow would be sharply defined, but with It. the sunlight that grazes the earth is bent Into the shadow and falls upon the moon, even when fully shaded. As this ltlt passes thrown the air, blue rays Bre scattered, and this gives the daytime sky its blue color Deprived of the blue, the light that emerges Is predominantly red, and the moon, in eclipse, takes on a ruddy, coppery color that used to strike terror into the hearts of primitive men when they saw it.

Though not actually total, it will be hard to tell it is not. Reminding one of the purity of a certain brand of soap, it will be 99.2 per cent total' That is, 99.2 per cent of the diameter of the moon will be in the shadow of the earth, and ttie .8 per cent remaining out will scarcely be noticed. In Eastern Standard Time, the first noticeable effect will come about 11:54 p.

when the northeastern edge of the moon touches the earth's shadow. At 1:36 a. m. the eclipse will be at its height, and the moon will have the red color of the light which is bent around the "earth by its atmosphere and into the Miadow. The eclipse will be over at 3:18 a.

Jupiter, high in the south, in Pisces, the fishes, is the most brilliant, of magnitude minus 24 in the astronomer's scale. Mars, lower and farther west, in the figure of Capricornus. the sea-goat, is red in color and considerably fainter, though it still 'exceeds in brilliance any of the stars, fa turn, toward the east, and also in Places, is faintest of the three. The other two planets that sometimes are visible to the unaided eye, Venus and Mercury, are both too close to the sun's "direction to be visible.
