6-26-10...9:43p...The full moon in June is called the "Strawberry" moon because the relatively short season for harvesting strawberries comes each year during the month of June. Europeans called this the Rose Moon. There will be also be a Partial Lunar Eclipse that coincides with moonset from the western and central sections of the US and Canada and coincides with moonrise for parts of eastern Asia. At its maximum the Moon will be overhead for observers in the South Pacific;nearly 54-percent of the Moon's diameter will become immersed in the Earth's dark umbral shadow. [P6269049]
