UncleAl Posted October 27, 2004 Report Posted October 27, 2004 It will be an especially good one! Long duration, deep shadow, relatively clean Earth atmosphere for a nice reflected red glow. Quote
Tim_Lou Posted October 27, 2004 Report Posted October 27, 2004 thx for sharing!too bad, looks like this isnt really for the eastern states : ( well... remembered from last year, I tried to catch the sight of Eclipse, but the weather... totally a mess, clouds all over, couldnt even see a bit. Quote
IrishEyes Posted October 27, 2004 Report Posted October 27, 2004 Very cool, Uncle Al. We're all set to see it here in Virginia. My oldest son is really interested in anything dealing with space, and a lunar eclipse is a rare treat indeed. Thanks Quote
Aki Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 I missed it today, too busy with homework. So how was it anyways? Quote
IrishEyes Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 I missed it today, too busy with homework. So how was it anyways? It was really awesome. The sky was incredibly clear, the weather was not too cold, and it lasted long enough for everyone to get more than a few good looks at it. But the best part of all was seeing the look on my oldest son's face when the moon actually looked reddish brown at full eclipse - he was just amazed! Priceless! If ever there were a candidate to visit Uncle Martin in Alabama for Space Camp, this boy is it! Quote
