The Moons Eclipse.

Well, i got a call from some relatives tonight(3:00am) talking about the moon etc, well apparently theres a full eclipse going on right now! and if you haven't saw it by now, then that sucks, since we wont ever see this again in our lifetimes, next eclipse like this should happen around year 2200, its pretty cool, its orange-ish looking with a nice glow to it and quite spectacular, go out side and look if your still got the moon outside! Tomorrow I'll try to update this post with some pictures and other news involving it.


Update,
I stood outside for about 10 minutes, noticing the color flicker around from a orange tone to a dark orange tone, from what i just read its suppose to get the the point the color is blood red, and they said the next event this would happen is around year 2011, instead of year 2200, but hell you never know what could happen, but this is really awesome to watch, I just wish i could have saw it when it first started. Now that would have been cool.

I was just checking it out like 30 minutes ago the site was spectacular but some clouds were there to ruin the fun.

Next one in 2011 hopefully no clouds this time its still going here in australia, uncovering now.

 

I saw it, and its just ending (becoming white again)

 

Never got to see it, now the picture is just showing the daytime.

 

omg, i saw that driving home from hockey. Look awesome

 

I remember seeing it that color like 5 years ago.

 

Heard about it but didnt see it

 

Yeh, i'm in Bris, Aus, i saw it too. too many clouds. it wasnt as red as the NEWS made it out to b.. i was a bit dissap[pointed. they reckon the next one is in 2011.
