月球会吞没火星吗？是的，但只是在它移动到前面的意义上，这种情况很少发生。然而，从北美和西非的一些地方可以看到，这种情况就发生在昨天。这次掩星之所以引人注目，不仅因为月球是一个完全照亮的狼月，还因为火星靠近它最大、最亮的月亮，明天才会对冲——在它的轨道上离地球最近。这种吞没，更正式的说法是掩星，通常持续大约一个小时。这张特色图片是在美国伊利诺斯州芝加哥附近拍摄的，当时地球最大的卫星正以一定的角度远离这颗遥远得多的红色星球。我们的月球偶尔会在太阳系所有行星的前面运行。考虑到轨道平面的暂时对齐，下一次月球蚀火星将在相对较近的2月9日。不断增长的画廊：2025年1月的月球-火星掩星

Does the Moon ever engulf Mars? Yes, but only in the sense that it moves in front, which happens on rare occasions. This happened just yesterday, though, as seen from some locations in North America and western Africa. This occultation was notable not only because the Moon was a fully lit Wolf Moon, but because Mars was near its largest and brightest, moving to opposition -- the closest to the Earth in its orbit -- only tomorrow. The engulfing, more formally called an occultation, typically lasts about an hour. The featured image was taken from near Chicago, Illinois, USA just as Earth's largest satellite was angularly moving away from the much more distant red planet. Our Moon occasionally moves in front of all of the Solar System's planets. Given the temporary alignment of orbital planes, the next time our Moon eclipses Mars will be a relatively soon February 9.
