Eclipse Tonight...

On the night of Wednesday October 27, 2004, the Moon will pass through Earth's shadow, an event known as a total Lunar eclipse. The eclipse will begin at 9:14pm Eastern Daylight Time (the equivalent of 1:14am, October 28, Universal Time), when a dark shadow will appear at the edge of Lunar disk. By 10:23pm EDT (2:23am UT) the entire Lunar surface will be obscured. 22 minutes later a slight glow will appear at the Moon's opposite edge, as it begins to emerge from 'behind' the Earth, and at 12:54am EDT (4:54am UT) it will be all over. The Moon will shine as brightly as ever.

The eclipse will be visible from every location where the Moon will be in sight during these hours. This includes both North and South America, Europe, Africa, and most of Asia. In some places, including the west coast of North America, much of Africa and western Asia, the Moon will rise while the eclipse is in progress or set before it is completely over. In eastern Asia and Australia the eclipse will not be visible at all.

So step outside this Wednesday night, watch the darkening face of the Moon, and ponder the majestic movements of the heavenly bodies that bring us this sublime display.

Re: Eclipse Tonight...

My friend text messeged me to go look at the moon, so of course I ran around my house trying to find which window I could see it from. I watched for about 15 min, then I had stuff to do, like go to sleep

Re: Eclipse Tonight...

I was about to go to bed and I went out to take a last peek ... and of course that's when it was all cool & glowing reddish.

So I get the camera & the tripod again but those pics didn't come out at all
