I couldn't care less.




But only because I can't afford to. It's overcast and snowing here. :D

Around 1:30 AM on the East coast.

Got my Telescope Ready... :up:

Hopefully the snow holds off.

True that Lunar eclipses aren't as dramatic as solar ones, but are still cool events that you don't get to see that often.

Gerald 12-20-10 08:17 PM

Next time, the years 2094, and approximately the same extent, :D

Bout 830pm in NC. I swear the edge of the left side of the moon almost has a blue hint behind it, looks like a black line to the left...wierd, probably my eyes, course it's bright as hell.

Much as I love rain (something that we rarely see in Souther California) we're in the middle of a massive storm system that's basically going to sit on the state for a few more days dropping massive amounts of water; no chance of clear skies for the next few days. Didn't think it'd be another 80+ years until the next one, have seen ones in the past through my telescope but was much younger and didn't really appreciate the rarity of what I was seeing.

Gerald 12-20-10 08:53 PM

I agree with!
