Did you see the big eclipse?
No, i missed it and i was very dissapointed as i am very much into astronomy
When is the next one in north america?
i just read that the total lunar eclipse on Jan. 21, 2019. I am not sure if it is eclipse season
Perhaps.     Can you define a lunar eclipse?
Yes i can. When the moon passes right behind the earth and goes into its shadow that is a lunar eclipse
How does that differ from a solar eclipse?
Well a solar eclipse has to do with the sun wheras the lunar eclipse does not. The moon passes btwn the sun and earth and blocks the sun
Oh, that is good.     Both types are pretty cool though!
Yes, very cool especially considering they are sometimes occuring only once in a person lifetime.
