Cool.
Total lunar eclipse will turn Moon red
| Quote: |
The eclipse will be visible across Western Europe, northwest Africa, the eastern half of North America and the whole of South America, according to the Royal Astronomical Society in London.
The full Moon will turn yellowish and then appear blood red, rusty or grey, depending on the atmospheric conditions on Earth. |
Here's a chart and timeline for EST:

Yep same here with the burnt orange now that it is fully eclipsed. Looked cooler at the half way point when you could clearly see that it was a shadow.

What a coincidence while looking up I told my wife I could take her to the moon...she didn't believe me.

We checked it out at David Lam park on False Creek, it was pretty. No smooching though.
It's funny how when something like this occurs you can pretty much walk up to anyone and start talking to them and they're receptive, any other time and they look at you like you're a lunatic(no pun intended.) |
