The moment the Moon enters a complete eclipse, the entire surface will become more or less uniformly bright, being able to reveal stars surrounding it. Later, as the Moon's opposite limb is struck by sunlight, the overall disk will again become obscured. This is because, as viewed from the Earth, the brightness of a lunar limb is generally greater than that of the rest of the surface due to reflections from the many surface irregularities within the limb: sunlight striking these irregularities is always reflected back in greater quantities than that striking more central parts, which is why the edges of full moons generally appear brighter than the rest of the lunar surface. This is similar to the effect of <a href="/wiki/Velvet" title="Velvet">velvet</a> fabric over a convex curved surface, which, to an observer, will appear darkest at the center of the curve.

Shorter <a href="/wiki/Wavelength" title="Wavelength">wavelengths</a> are more likely to be scattered by the air molecules and <a href="/wiki/Particulates" title="Particulates">small particles</a>; thus, the longer wavelengths predominate by the time the light rays have penetrated the atmosphere.

This is the same effect that causes <a href="/wiki/Sunset" title="Sunset">sunsets</a> and <a href="/wiki/Sunrise" title="Sunrise">sunrises</a> to turn the sky a reddish color.

In general, the dustier the atmosphere, the more that other wavelengths of light will be removed (compared to red light), leaving the resulting light a deeper red color. This causes the resulting coppery-red hue of the Moon to vary from one eclipse to the next. Volcanoes are notable for expelling large quantities of dust into the atmosphere, and a large eruption shortly before an eclipse can have a large effect on the resulting color. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Eclipse_Christophe_Colomb.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/Eclipse_Christophe_Colomb.jpg/220px-Eclipse_Christophe_Colomb.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="179" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1602" data-file-height="1302"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 179px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/Eclipse_Christophe_Colomb.jpg/220px-Eclipse_Christophe_Colomb.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="179" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/Eclipse_Christophe_Colomb.jpg/330px-Eclipse_Christophe_Colomb.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/Eclipse_Christophe_Colomb.jpg/440px-Eclipse_Christophe_Colomb.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </span></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Christopher_Columbus" title="Christopher Columbus">Christopher Columbus</a> predicting <a href="/wiki/March_1504_lunar_eclipse" title="March 1504 lunar eclipse">a lunar eclipse</a></figcaption></figure> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(5)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="In_culture">In culture</h2></div><section class="mf-section-5 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-5"> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Eclipses_in_mythology_and_culture" title="Eclipses in mythology and culture">Eclipses in mythology and culture</a></div> <p>Several cultures have <a href="/wiki/Myth" title="Myth">myths</a> related to lunar eclipses or allude to the lunar eclipse as being a good or bad <a href="/wiki/Omen" title="Omen">omen</a>.
