      Two images of a partial lunar eclipse are shown. On the left the image   
       is overexposed everywhere except the bottom right where the eclipsed   
       part of the Moon is visible. On the right image most of the image is   
        normally exposed but the bottom right part is dark. Please see the   
                    explanation for more detailed information.   
      
                              A Partial Lunar Eclipse

      Explanation: What's happened to the Moon? Within the last day, part of   
      the Moon moved through the Earth's shadow. This happens about once or   
      twice a year, but not every month since the Moon's orbit around the   
      Earth is slightly tilted. Pictured here, the face of a full Hunter's   
      Moon is shown twice from Italy during this partial lunar eclipse. On   
      the left, most of the Moon appears overexposed except for the eclipsed   
      bottom right, which shows some familiar lunar surface details. In   
      contrast, on the right, most of the (same) Moon appears normally   
      exposed, with the exception of the bottom right, which now appears   
      dark. All lunar eclipses are visible from the half of the Earth facing   
      the Moon at the time of the eclipse, but this eclipse was visible   
      specifically from Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia, clouds   
      permitting. In April, a total solar eclipse will be visible from North   
      America.
