"Pre-eclipse Moon" by RNJoel from WunderPhotos |
My Facebook Post:
"The lunar eclipse, beginning at 10:30 and the total eclipse beginning at 11:41, will cause the moon to look ruddy because of the light filtering through the earth's atmosphere. The moon should be in its deepest reddish shadow at 12:17 a.m. My family will be sitting outside in our lawn chairs to watch. (NOT)"
I think the fact that it is pouring rain right now (and has been the last two days and will be the next two days) is a valid reason to miss the eclipse. Not that we would have gone to much trouble to see it anyway. I do, however, think that a good eclipse, whether you can see it or not, is worth mentioning.
Let us consider it therefore, hereby mentioned.
