Eclipse of The Moon (Lunar Eclipse) : Gerhana Bulan

The document discusses lunar and solar eclipses. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is positioned between the Sun and Moon, casting its shadow on the Moon. This causes the Moon to appear reddish or dark grey and can last over an hour. A solar eclipse happens when the Moon is between the Earth and Sun, blocking sunlight and creating two shadow zones on Earth. A total solar eclipse only lasts a few minutes and is dangerous to look at directly.
