It creates a magnifying affect

I've been there when I was like 13

The moon was huuuuuuuuuge

That still doesn’t explain why the shadow moves down over the moon instead of upwards.

I do have a question for the FE community: whats your explanation for tides?

It's supposed to do that gwen

@Mr Orb ☭ The explanation for that is very scientific. I am not your best one to be asking that question. Something about electromagnetic energy.

Electromagnetic energy? On tides?

I learnt something

Ohhhhj

It's the earth's umbra

You are seeing the earth's shadow gwen

@Samwise No Sam. In a Selenilion eclipse, the sun is always on the opposite horizon as the moon. It is impossible for the shadow to move downwards.

It's the earth's shadow

You see

@Samwise It’s obvious my questions are over your head. I will have to ask someone else then.

It's also called a horizontal eclipse

Gwen you are being condescending now

This is over

No. I’m not. You are. Telling me it’s the earths shadow. That has to be the most idiotic scientific explanation I’ve ever come across.

Umbra, penumbra and antumbra

The selenelion only occurs just before sunset or after sunrise

Both the moon and sun are roughly opposite each other

Atmospheric refraction causes the perceived height difference

The moon is in Earth's umbra

This causes a Horizontal eclipse, which is why you are seeing the shadow go like that

Maybe if you had the faintest scientific knowledge you'd understand what I'm saying before you elevate yourself

It’s obvious you are unable to explain why the shadow moves downward instead of upwards like it should.

Dont umbra penumbra multiple layers if shadow only happen with multiple light sources or if the light reflects off something? What could cause the penumbra other than the firmament bouncing light rays?

@Deleted User Hey 👋. It’s great to see you here. 😃

Hello

Help me out here. This guy refuses to explain why the shadow on a Selenilion eclipse travels downward over the moon. I would like to know how his globe model can explain it. He’s not doing a very good job I’m afraid. 🙄

Lel I give up

Do you know what vertical and horizontal means?

@Samwise The fact that you feel you need to ask me a stupid question like that tells me that you can’t answer my question. Don’t divert the conversation.

If you can’t explain it, then just freaking say so. 🙄

I'm not

A selenilion is also called a horizontal eclipse

Don't forget that atmospheric refraction is the only reason why it's possible to observe

Yes meaning the shadow is moving perpendicular to the movement of a normal eclipse.

Ok

Maybe you're right, I mean if you think electromagnetic energy has anything to do with tides then yes I'm completely wrong and I accept your theory
