The color and brightness of the moon can change sharply from one eclipse to the next, depending on the amount of volcanic ash in the atmosphere. The dungeon scale, which rates the lunar eclipses from zero to four, will help you viewers gauge the appearance of the moon during the eclipse tonight. Credit / Photo illustration: Bob King
