lunar eclipse

[zerocool1]

there's gonna be a lunar eclipse tomorrow...crossing my fingers on the weather. Its starts at 9. But the total eclipse is from 10:15 to 11:06. (this is CST and at night obviously)

Of course. Supposed to have thunderstorms in Dallas tonight. :disgust:

rain rain rain and more rain in western NY...

So, I won't be able to observe that I can't see the moon.

edit: Or is it "I won't be able to see that I can't observe the moon"???

I was able to see the moon last night despite the smoke, so I am hoping it is the same tonight.

Gonna go outside with lawnchair and a Strawberry Margarita! :beer:

...and a fine cigar! That would make the eclipse 10x better. Too bad I don't have one on me.

Won't be able to see it here, it's all cloudy.

 

[conjur]

I'll give you the play-by-play. It should go something like this:

"I can see the moon...All of it."
"oh...there's a little bit missing on the side."
"dark spot is growing."
"Ok, looks like a big C"
"Hey, who stole the moon?"
"Oh, there it is...coming back."
"Almost all the way back now."
"ok...show's over...go to bed."
