Lunar Eclipse due to Electromagnetic Acceleration

According to the Flat Earth Theory's celestial model of Electromagnetic Acceleration the Lunar Eclipse occurs when the Moon travels out of bounds of the Sun's area of light. As result of the geometry of the Sun's curving rays the Lunar Eclipse occurs when the Moon is furthest from the Sun, on a Full Moon. The Lunar Eclipse occurs two to five times a year.

Lunar Phase Overview
The EA explanation of the occurrence of the Lunar Eclipse is related to the Lunar Phases. From the Electromagnetic Acceletation - Lunar Phases section we see:

Cause of Lunar Eclipse
As seen in the above, both the Moon and Sun follow similar paths near the ecliptic. On large scales light is curving upwards, as per Flat Earth's celestial model of Electromagnetic Acceleration. The Earth's presence limits the extent of the parabolic rays and blocks the light at the boundary from progressing outwards beyond a certain range. The Lunar Eclipse occurs on an occasion when the Moon is on the opposite side of the ecliptic from the Sun and its diurnal path wanders "out of bounds," intersecting the daylight boundary at the edges. Hence according to EA it is found that, after all, the shadow on the Moon during the Lunar Eclipse is the shadow of the Earth.

The scheme described above will follow a certain geometrical pattern. It can be predicted that the Lunar Eclipse will occur when:


 * - The Moon is Full
 * - The Moon is on opposite extremes of the Earth from the Sun
 * - The Moon and Sun are near their greatest latitudinal displacement from each other

Another consequence will be that the Lunar Eclipse will turn red, since the outer-most rays of the Sun create parabolic arcs which dip down and pass through the atmosphere of the Earth. When the Sun's light is horizontal against the atmosphere the light will turn red, as seen when the sky turns red during sunsets. It is also apparent that, since the Sun and Moon are on opposite extremes of the ecliptic during the Lunar Eclipse, the path which intersects the atmosphere will be through an area near the North Pole. If this geometry is true, it follows that conditions at the North Pole may affect the appearance of the Lunar Eclipse. And indeed, astronomers have noted an anomaly where during periods of high auroral activity the Lunar Eclipse has been seen to be very bright.

Curved Shadow
One of the original proofs for the rotundity of the world was the shape of the shadow on the Moon during a Lunar Eclipse. Aristotle reasoned that only a round earth could cause a round shadow. Since the shadow is round on the Moon, the Earth must also be round. Although a seemingly reasonable statement at a glance, this is not necessarily the case. Since the surface of the Moon is that of a small convexly curved sphere, a flat or slightly concave shadow can display as convexly curved upon the Moon.

In a dark room place a flashlight onto a ledge, shining at a sphere about eleven or so feet away. Use a book or folder to block the path of light, observing how the shadow behaves on the sphere.



We see that a shadow on a sphere curves on its own, due to the convexity of the sphere. Under EA explanation for the Lunar Eclipse the shadow at the boundary is only slightly concave, as compared to the smaller convex surface of the Moon.

Lunar Eclipse Comparison
Compare the warping of the shadow in the above example to the shadow on the real Moon during a Lunar Eclipse:



Less than 180 degrees
Interestingly, during the eclipse the shadow seen does not travel straight across the Moon's face, but appears to turn mid-stride, making a 110 - 120 degree angle across its surface.

Under the EA model:



Lunar Eclipse Timelapses
In the below examples of the Lunar Eclipse notice that the shadow does not go straight across the Moon's face, but seems to make a turn mid-way through.

Deliberate Rotation of Lunar Face
An assessment of Lunar Eclipse timelapses and montages available online shows that some eclipse shadows appear to move straight across the Moon's disk. However, closer inspection of the features of the Moon's face shows that it has been rotated in Photoshop or post-processing for artistic reasons, to give the expected appearance of the shadow moving straight across:

Bright Lunar Eclipse
Under the EA explanation for the Lunar Eclipse it is seen that when the Sun and Moon are on opposite sides from each other the dipping rays must pass through the auroral zone on their way to the Moon. On occasion the Lunar Eclipse will be seen to be significantly brighter. It has been remarked by European astronomers that there is an association with the presence of the Aurora and bright occurrences of the Lunar Eclipse.
