Lunar eclipse (26)

Jun 15, 2011 2:13 PM CST Lunar eclipse
We will be treated to a blood red moon rising in tonight's lunar eclipse.

From around 10pm tonight the moon will rise almost completely shrouded in deep darkness on the west coast.

People in the east will see it rise as a blood red disc in what is the last total lunar eclipse until 2015.

lets hope for no clouds, I wanna see thispopcorn

Anyone else having a problem? or is it just me? (and yes... i have my glasses on!)

It was a pretty sight ok. I got a few photos but this thread type wont allow photos.Put one on my profile instead
The best part though was when the International Space Station blazed over at about 11:45 pm,carrying 6 astronauts it was amazingly bright.
Thats the last one for 4 years at least...wave
