🌙 When the Moon Hides in Earth's Shadow...

A recent informative session on lunar eclipses for students sparked curiosity and fascination about astronomy. In addition to the scientific explanation, students explored the significance of eclipses in space studies and reflected on the difference between scientific facts and traditional myths.
The session explained that a lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth positions itself between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the lunar surface. This results in three types of eclipses: total, partial, and penumbral. Notably, a total lunar eclipse, also known as a "Blood Moon," happened on September 7-8, 2025, and was visible across India. During this rare celestial event, the Moon took on a reddish hue due to the Earth's shadow, with the maximum totality occurring at 11:41 PM IST. Major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Kolkata, and Chennai witnessed this spectacular event, which was observable from start to finish.

The discussion sparked curiosity, with students eagerly asking questions and sharing their own experiences of observing the Moon.
