The moon will be 100% full Tuesday, Dec 21 at 12:15 A.M. Las Vegas time. (Full Moon names below)<\/p>\n

“As Earth\u2019s long shadow falls across the Moon, the part in the shadow will turn dark. It will look as though a chunk were missing from the Moon. About an 70 minutes later, the shadow will completely cover the Moon, an event known as “totality.” This will last for more than an hour, then the shadow will exit the Moon’s opposite side over another hour or so”<\/p>\n

“The entire event will last just over 3.5 hours and can be seen from coast to coast. See table below for eclipse times and graphics for different U.S. time zones. Note that the eclipse begins on December 20 in the Pacific and Mountain time zones, and on December 21 in the Central and Eastern time zones” read more from StarDate.org<\/a><\/p>\n

FULL MOON NAMES:<\/p>\n

BACK EAST:<\/strong>
\n“Historically, the Native Americans who lived in the area that is now the northern and eastern United States kept track of the seasons by giving distinctive names to the recurring full Moons.” <\/p>\n

“Each full Moon name was applied to the entire month in which it occurred. These names, and some variations, were used by the Algonquin tribes from New England to Lake Superior.” – The Old Farmer’s Almanac.<\/p>\n

According to this information, The December full Moon is referred to as the: “Full Cold Moon”
\n“This is the month when the winter cold fastens its grip and the nights become long and dark. This full Moon is also called the Long Nights Moon by some Native American tribes.”<\/p>\n

OUT WEST:<\/strong>
\n “American Indians gave names to each of the full moons to keep track of the passing year. The names are associated with the entire month until the next full moon occurs. Since a lunar month averages 29 days, the dates of the moons change from year to year. Here are titles most closely associated with calendar months.” – read more from The Old Farmer’s Almanac<\/a><\/p>\n

One of those names for the December, 2010 full Moon is in the Shoshone (Shoshone – Great Basin, Nevada, Wyoming) language; that name is: “dommo-mea'” – meaning, winter.<\/p>\n

More Moon information, from Wikipedia:
\n“A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes behind the earth so that the earth blocks the sun’s rays from striking the moon. This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned exactly, or very closely so, with the Earth in the middle. Hence, there is always a full moon the night of a lunar eclipse. The type and length of an eclipse depend upon the Moon’s location relative to its orbital nodes. The next total lunar eclipse will occur on December 21, 2010 at 0817 UTC[1].” read more from Wikipedia”<\/a><\/p>\n
