Look at the moon tonight

[Artdeco]

Big and very red. Should be amazing, and you won't see it again till 2033

 

[Red Squirrel]

I'm at work. Can't see the moon from the office even if I go outside.

I always miss these. if I am at home, then it ends up being cloudy.

Oh well I'm sure lot of people will post pics.

 

[Crono]

No it's not. It's white. Only red during the eclipse.

I seem to be lucky it's at a spot that I can see it if I go outside the office. It looks like it started slightly. I think the total eclipse is at around 10pm.

Overcast here tonight and for the next week probably. Sometimes it feels like I'm living in Cornwall rather than NJ.

Out of curiosity I looked up how much sun we get here and sunny days are less than 10 per month on average, although that does go up by 50-100% if you include partly sunny days.

The wife is ticked, it is cloudy here tonight.

She was looking forward to it.

Cloudy in Chicago. Blah.

 

[GagHalfrunt]

Weather was touch and go here. 50/50 chance on whether the clouds would get here before the eclipse did. Looks like the eclipse won. Sky is still clear and moon is about halfway covered. I'll go outside about 25 minutes from now to watch it start to turn red.

You can see the moon fine using this live stream. http://www.space.com/30546-supermoon-blood-moon-total-lunar-eclipse.html

Edit: The stream seems to to buffer a lot though

Clouds in Las Vegas and we only get half dozen cloudy days a month

 

[MongGrel]

Yeah, she still is going and checking, she was going to pull out the NASA feed she said.

I tried space.com, looks overloaded there atm.

I think the moon is trolling

*edit* NASA.gov even says off the air.

Of course there are clouds hugging the mountains to the east here in LA when there's a once in a decade+ blood moon event.

 

[mmntech]

Cloudy in Toronto too. Figures.

We'll be in the Metro by then; won't be able to see it at all.

Perfect night here in CT. At 10:04 PM it's almost gone. I don't see any red moon yet.

 

[MongGrel]

Did find a live one from Slooh here.

[Red Squirrel]

Yep almost covered. Glad it ended up being in a decent spot, did not figure I'd be able to see it from the office.

If it has two guys talking it's the same stream at space.com. I can't get the nasa stream to come up.

 

[JoeyM]

Well, I take it back. Now that it's pretty much totally eclipsed, it's red.
Very cool. I'm impressed.

Well, since this is the 4th total lunar eclipse this year & 3 were visible to you(LA) & 3 more are coming in 2018/19 - 2 visible to you i'd hardly call it a "once in a decade+" event.
Not counting this years, there were 6 total lunar eclipses in the last 10 years & there will be 9 in the next 10 years.

"Blood moon" is just another name for eclipsed moon that's become popular in the last several years.

Obligatory..."That's NOT a moon!"

Saw it its full glory here on the Olympic Peninsula. Nice clear skies for a change.

While "blood moon" is just a bullshit name (NOT new BTW) for a lunar eclipse, tonight's eclipse was a bit different than the normal one. First, it was during the full moon nearest the fall equinox...next, it happened during a "super moon" when the moon was at its closest apogee to the earth...making the moon a bit larger than normal. Last time this happened was 33 years ago...next time will be in 18 years.

Is there any rovers on the moon at all? Would be cool if there was a picture of the eclipse from the moon.
