when a person on the earth is observing a lunar eclipse (eclipse of the moon ),an astronaut on the moon , facing the earth ,will observe an eclipse?
Answers
Answer: No the observer will see the dark side of the moon
Explanation:
During an eclipse, an astronaut would see the dark night side of the Earth slide in front of the Sun until it is completely surrounded by light. This spectacular ring of light was seen by Japan's Kaguya spacecraft while in orbit around the moon during the February 10, 2009 eclipse.
While the ring of light dominates the astronauts' view of the sky, the lunar surface beneath their feet and on the surrounding mountain peaks would be bathed in red light. This red coloration is caused by Earth's atmosphere acting as a lens, bending sunlight and scattering blue light while allowing red light to pass through and eventually reach the lunar surface. Note: The visualization below was created for the April 2014 lunar eclipse, but the visual will be the same for the May 16 eclipse. Also note that the video is only 33 seconds long, so the changes in color and brightness on the surface of the moon happen faster than they would in reality.
An astronaut looking from the far side of the moon would be observing a solar eclipse, not a lunar eclipse. From their perspective, the Earth passes in front of the Sun, obscuring the Sun from view.
