Explanation: The beginning, middle, and end of a journey through planet Earth’s colorful umbral shadow is captured in this timelapse composite image of a total lunar eclipse. Taken on November 8 from Kitt Peak National Observatory this eclipse’s 1 hour and 25 minute long total phase starts on the right and finishes on the left. Reddened sunlight, scattered into the central shadow by Earth’s dusty atmosphere produces the dramatic dark red hues reflected by the lunar disk. For this eclipse, additional reddening is likely due to scattering from ash lingering in the atmosphere after a large volcanic eruption in the southern Pacific earlier this year. Seen at the right and left, the Earth’s shadow is still lighter along its edge though. That faint bluish fringe along the lunar limb is colored by sunlight filtered through Earth’s stratospheric ozone layer.

说明: 这幅月全食的缩时组合图像，呈现了月亮穿入地球多彩本影的旅程之起点食既、中点食甚、及终点生光阶段的景观。在11月8日从基特峰国家天文台看出去，这次全长1小时25分的月全食，始于右侧，终结于左侧。而受到地球尘土飞扬的大气层散射到中央本影里的红化阳光，造就了月盘所反射的戏剧性暗红色泽。在这例月食里，其他造成光红化的因素，还有今年稍早南太平洋火山发生大喷发后，遗留在大气里的火山灰所造成的阳光散射。在图像的右侧和左侧，可见到地球影子的边缘之色泽较淡。月球临边的那抹淡蓝，则是来自受到地球平流层内的臭氧层过滤的阳光之渲染。
