Abstract
Abstract Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos is the major figure of the Age of Enlightenment in Spain. He observed the total lunar eclipse of 1794 February 14 from Gijón (north of Spain). Jovellanos described the moon color as “glowing iron.” It indicates that the stratosphere around 1794 seems to have been undisturbed volcanically as previous estimates indicate.
