Lunar eclipses occur when the Earth passes between the sun and moon, casting its shadow on the moon’s surface. Total lunar eclipses are relatively rare events, occurring about once each year. They can only happen during a full moon, when the moon and sun are on opposite sides of the Earth.

Mt. Rainier, standing at 14,410 feet and containing 26 major glaciers, is the highest mountain in the Cascade Range, with one of the most glaciated peaks in the continental United States. Its beauty and wealth of flora and fauna led early conservationists such as John Muir to seek federal protection for the mountain and surrounding areas.
