The eclipse that is coming in April is going to be a big event in Buffalo. So much so, that the Erie County Executive is asking businesses to close that day.
Did you see the lunar eclipse the other night? A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon and Earth’s shadow moves across the surface of the Moon. It can only happen when the Sun, Earth and Moon are aligned in nearly a straight line, and it can only happen on the night of a full Moon.
