Frequently asked questions

How often are there eclipses?

Every year has at least four, two solar and two lunar, but each is visible only from part of Earth.

Is it safe to look at a solar eclipse?

Only with certified eclipse glasses or a proper solar filter, except during the brief moment of totality. Sunglasses are not safe.

Why is a lunar eclipse red?

Sunlight bent through Earth’s atmosphere still reaches the Moon. The air scatters blue light away, so the light that remains is red, as at sunset.
