Default Lunar eclipse tonight

A lunar eclipse will be visible in Europe and parts of the U.S. and Asia tonight. I shall be observing from my garden.

Should be quite nice if the clouds stay away.

Oh, and in before Steve's thumb.

Just watched it go into totality here (SW London suburbs) - a bit misty, and lots of light pollution, but I could see it well enough to distinguish a rusty orange/brown colour - if it was toast, I'd say it was just about done.

Obviously never seen my workplaces toaster or it'd be on fire.

But yes, a lovely show, glad I was able to see it.

Those who can't can watch the remainder on:

I was somewhat able to see but any attempts to take any photos or video where a no go, much to my disappointment.

Can't say I had too much luck in that department either. Plus, it was beginning to come out of totality.
