[[File:Eclipse from moon.jpg|thumb|right|350px|A painting by [[Lucien Rudaux]] showing how a solar eclipse might appear when viewed from the lunar surface. The Moon's surface appears red because the only sunlight available is refracted through Earth's atmosphere on the edges of Earth, as shown in the sky in this painting.]]

A lunar eclipse is on the Moon a [[solar eclipse]]. The occurrence makes Earth's atmosphere appear as a red ring around the dark Earth. During full moon, the phase when lunar eclipses take place, the dark side of the Earth is illuminated by the Moon and its [[moon light]].
