![]() Ten counties (five near Chicago, IL, and five near Evansville, IN) are in the Central Time Zone and use Central Daylight Time.įive other counties (near Cincinnati, OH, and Louisville, KY) are in the Eastern Time Zone and use Eastern Daylight Time. Most of Indiana (including state capital Indianapolis) remains on Eastern Standard Time all year long (use times listed for Central Daylight Time). Indiana has the most complex implementation of Daylight Saving Time. The Navajo Nation, in northeastern Arizona, is currently on Mountain Daylight Time. To get eclipse times for Arizona, use the times for Pacific Daylight Time. Note that most of the USA is observing Daylight Saving Timeduring the eclipse.Īrizona remains on Mountain Standard Time year-round and does not use Daylight Saving Time.

The following diagrams show the Moon's path through Earth's shadows (higher resolution versions of the above figure). Path of the Moon through Earth's umbral and penumbral shadowsĭuring the Total Lunar Eclipse of Oct. However, if the entire Moon passes through the umbral shadow, then a total eclipse of the Moon occurs.įor more information on how, what, why, where and when of lunar eclipses, see the special web page If the Moon passes through only part on the umbra, a partial eclipse is seen. In contrast, the inner shadow or umbra is a region where Earth blocks all direct sunlight from reaching the Moon. ![]() The outer shadow or penumbra is a zone where Earth blocks some (but not all) of the Sun's rays. The shadow is actually composed of two cone-shaped parts, one nested inside the other. ![]() This event is a total eclipse of the Moon which will be visible from North and South America as well as Europe, Africa and Antarctica.ĭuring such an eclipse, the Moon's disk can take on a dramatically colorful appearance from bright orange to blood red to dark brown and (rarely) very dark gray.Īn eclipse of the Moon can only take place at Full Moon, and only if the Moon passes through some portion of Earth's shadow. The last eclipse of 2004 occurs on the evening of Wednesday, October 27 (in Europe, the eclipse occurs during the early morning hours of Thursday, October 28).
