There’s a lunar eclipse going on tonight. This time, the moon will be in mid-eclipse by the time it rises on the east coast of the US, but people will still get to see it in full eclipse for a an hour or so and then get to see it brighten back up again over the next couple of hours.
I’ve always liked lunar eclipses. They’re easier to watch, go on for a lot longer and I like the colour the moon changes to. Incidentally, today’s APOD is a cool movie of the moon transiting the Sun as seen by the STEREO B craft in UV. Neato.
