Why?  Because this eclipse is actually a \u201cpenumbral\u201d lunar eclipse.<\/p>\n<p>The Earth casts not one, but two types of shadows out into space: an umbra, the shadow directly around it, and a penumbra (see graphic, below). When the Moon passes into the umbra, we can readily see a dark and very distinct outline of the Earth\u2019s circular shadow cast upon Moon\u2019s disk. The penumbra, on the other hand, casts a much fainter and far less distinct shadow, which is far more difficult to perceive and as such might not immediately catch your eye <a href=\"http:\/\/farmersalmanac.com\/astronomy\/2017\/02\/06\/what-is-penumbral-lunar-eclipse\/\">read more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/index.html\">Visit the main pages of The Las Vegas Buffet Club<\/a><\/p>\n<p>*<br \/>\n <script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- LVBC BLOG RESPONSIVE -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3305383693358973\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8378569513\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>February\u2019s full Moon is traditionally called the Full Snow Moon because usually the heaviest snows fall in February.
