| The Umbra of Earth (December 15, 2011) |
This is a compiled picture of the phases of the moon during the lunar eclipse on December 10: it goes from partial to total to partial again. The photos were taken in Beijing, China. During the eclipse, the moon was in the Earth's umbra for a total of 51 minutes. This picture helps to depict the movement of the moon through the eclipse, and the shape of the Earth's umbra.
