| Hope this news isn't late. ^^ There will be a total lunar eclipse tomorrow (August 28, 2007). The last central total lunar eclipse was in 2000. There was one in March 03, but I missed it. =_=  Eclipse Timetable Penumbral Eclipse Begins: 07:53:39 UT Partial Eclipse Begins: 08:51:16 UT Total Eclipse Begins: 09:52:22 UT Greatest Eclipse: 10:37:22 UT Total Eclipse Ends: 11:22:24 UT Partial Eclipse Ends: 12:23:30 UT Penumbral Eclipse Ends: 13:21:01 UT All of North America will witness some portion of the eclipse, but western observers are favored. The early penumbral or umbral phases will be in progress at moonset for observers in Maritime Canada. From the eastern USA, the Great Lakes region and Ontario, the Moon sets in total eclipse. Only observers to the west of the Rockies (including Alaska) will be treated to the entire event. All phases of the eclipse are also visible from islands of the Pacific Ocean, New Zealand and eastern Australia. Various stages of the eclipse are in progress at moonrise for eastern Asia. No eclipse is visible from Europe, Africa and western Asia. The next eclipse, a partial solar one, will be on September 11. Source |
| Live-feed available here if it's too cold outside for people: http://www.discoverychannelasia.com/eclipse/ This is going on right now, so look outside (unless in Africa or Europe). |

| Thanks, Serg. I just went outside and I couldn't see a thing (it's too cloudy here, darn it). |
| I guess I can't see it then :( |
| For 30 minutes, i had a beautiful viewing of it. Too bad i couldn't get a damn photo. And i kept trying, and trying...and failing. |
| I love eclipses. I'm european, and jealous =P |
| Dammit, I have a renewed urge to burn my school down to the ground. Then again last night was foggy. Damn this Daly City fog. |
| Sooo, anyone took some pictures and can be bothered to post? |
| I don't have a camera, so no pictures... and right after the total eclipse started the moon fell behind the forest so I couldn't see it anymore. Watched it with my best friend, whom had never seen a lunar eclipse before. |

 |
