Lunar Eclipse Tonight!

Okay, here’s your last reminder. There’s going to be a total lunar eclipse tonight, visible from the Americas, Europe and Africa. This is going to be the last eclipse visible until 2007, so I suggest that you set some time aside to enjoy this natural wonder. You don’t need any special equipment, just head outside, and watch the Moon as it darkens and then turns a beautiful red colour. Here’s an article about the eclipse that was posted a few weeks ago, and a full list of astrocameras that will be broadcasting the eclipse onto the Internet.

I hope you all get clear skies! Let me know how it goes for you.
