HUGH PRUETT Allrouonur. cleu-ntl Kxl-n.lon Ulvlilon, llnlv-r.Uy of Oregon The first total eclipse of the moon to occur anywhere in the world in over three years, is on the celestial schedule for Tues day, December 18. This will be the first in more than ten years to have practically every phase visible from oil of western North America at a convenient early evening hour. Since the splendid phenomenon of July 15, 1935, only two total lunar eclipses have been visible from our part of the earth. The dates: May 13-14, 1938, and August 26, 1942. This coming eclipse wilt be especially fine wherever the sky is clear. The full moon will rise far north of east at about the time of sunset. Only observers in the Pacific time zone will miss the first, or penumbral stage; but this is seldom noticed by anyone except experts anyhow. The term 'moon enters penum bra" is often confusing, causing many to think the eclipse is not occurring on schedule. This phase presents simply a slightly dirty look to the moon's jolly countenance, and to the casual observer is not noticeable at all. At this stage the enrth i. cutting off the light of part of the sun from the lunar surface, yet at no place is there an actual shadow; just a slight dimming.

This starts as a small dent on the lower side of the moon and gradually creeps over the lunar surface. When it reaches the upper side, all the moon is in shadow, and totality begins. Throughout the total phase the moon usually remains faintly visible as a ghostly, copper colored object. This Is duo to some indirect sunlight that bends through the atmosphere around the sides of the earth. The moon on such occasions has sometimes entirely disappeared from unaided-eye view, as was the case October 4, 1884. This was duo to clouds in the ring of atmos phere entirely around the earth through which the light would otherwise have passed and by which it would have been bent. Lunar ecllixius occur when the earth gets between the moon and sun and cuts off the solar light, The moon Is not a self luminous body, but shines only because it is lighted by the sun. Photography of lunar ocllpscs Is easy. Set the camera so It points In tho gonerul direction of tho moon, and do not muvu the camera during the entire eclipse. Every ten minutes snap a picture with stop at 11 and time 110 second. A lino of moons at various stages of ocllp.se Is thus recorded. En largements are often holuful.
