前晚百年难遇的天文现象——“血月”,大家都看到了吗?
“血月”也就是红月亮的别称,是在月全食过程中产生的现象,今天菌菌就给大家伙普及一下,有关红月亮以及月全食的相关英语词汇,赶紧来学一下吧。
”血月“是什么?
“血月”blood moon,是指在月食期间,月亮将滑入地球的阴影中,逐渐将白色的光圈变成橙色或红色。红光是阳光掠过地球的大气层发生弯曲后在月球表面传递的现象。
During the eclipse, the moon will glide into Earth’s shadow, gradually turning the white disk of light to orange or red. That red light you see is sunlight that has skimmed and bent through Earth’s atmosphere and continued on through space to the moon.
月全食的成因
月球绕地球运行,与此同时,地球绕太阳运转。有时地球在太阳和月亮之间移动。当这种情况发生时,地球会阻挡通常被月球反射的阳光。地球的影子落在月球上,而不是光照在月球表面。这就是月食,或月全食。月全食只有在满月时才能发生。
The Moon moves around Earth, at the same time, Earth moves around Sun. Sometimes Earth moves between the Sun and the Moon. When this happens, Earth blocks the sunlight that normally is reflected by the Moon. Instead of light hitting the Moon's surface, Earth's shadow falls on the Moon. This is an eclipse of the Moon, or a lunar eclipse. A lunar eclipse can occur only when the Moon is full.
了解完月全食的形成原因后,再跟菌菌来学一下这些相关词汇吧:
lunar [ˈlunər] 月球的;月亮的
eclipse [əˈklɪps] (日,月)食
total lunar eclipse [ˈtəutəl ˈlju:nə iˈklips] 月全食
celestial [sə'lɛstʃəl] 天上的,天空的
anomaly [ə'nɑməli] 异常
obscure [əb'skjʊr] 掩盖;隐藏
phenomenon [fə'nɑmɪnən] 现象
