Lunar Eclipse
On 8/28, if you looked up in the sky, you would be able to see a lunar eclipse. I heard about this type of eclipse does not happen all the time, occurring three to four times every decade. I was looking all over on my way home after work. The moon rose at 6:29; around 7:00, I found the moon. It was very dark, but seems like something cover on. News said the moon would be red color, but I felt its gray. There's a change in color for sure. About 7:20, I watched the moon partly showed up. One hour later, when the time I looked up again, the moon already turn to full moon. I was so excited to see this seldom eclipse. It can only occur at full moon and only if the moon passes through some portion of the earth's shadow. I felt it’s really an amazing thing; even though the moon looks like it's traveling slowly, in fact, it's traveling 2,000 mph.
