In this study, the tilt of the Earth’s axis was measured during a lunar eclipse
using a telescope based on the angle between the lunar orbit and ecliptic
planes being considered as approximately zero. The presented method not
only offers a practical and reliable way of measuring the axial tilt of the
Earth during a lunar eclipse but also helps in providing a higher
argumentation-based conceptual understanding and awareness of
astronomical events and their results through the combination of observation
with measurement.
