When the color of moonlight looks bright and firm, then the quality of the atmosphere is better. But if the color is darker, the worse the quality of the atmosphere.Letting Djamal, after the eruption of Mount Tambora in 1815 which killed about 100 thousand inhabitants, a layer of earth's atmosphere when it is covered with volcanic ash until some time so that when the lunar eclipse, the line between the shadow of the earth with the light of the moon dark and diffuse.Not only Indonesia, a country can enjoy this stunning scenery.
