Last month, some of us here on earth were lucky enough to experience a full lunar eclipse. These are such cool astronomical events, but we do not see them very often. So why is it that we do not get a lunar eclipse every time there is a full moon? We are here to explore all of that in more in this out-of-this-world edition of Science Sunday.
There is so much more Science Sunday to explore. Check out the full gallery of segments on our blog: https://ctsciencecenter.org/blog_categories/science-sunday/.
