Redundant. Lunar eclipse will suffice.

I think car could be substituted for pickup in this case...especially if we're talking about a Trans-Am or '69 Charger.

All lunar eclipses occur during a full moon. Every single one of them. No such thing as a crescent, gibbous, first quarter, last quarter, or new moon, lunar eclipse.

However, a full moon CAN occur without a lunar eclipse. And there was a full moon before and after the event.

It's possible (I'm not going to look it up) that under a very strict definition, a "full moon" lasts only an instant. The moon would be a waxing gibbous the instant earlier and a waning gibbous an instant after.

But it is also factual that a lunar eclipse is a subset of the full moon.
