Default Re: Total lunar eclipse tomorrow morning

This eclipse was also in the dead of night, for those of us in the wilds of Alaska. Due south from me at the start of totality. The darkest of several eclipses I've seen - a deep rust colour instead of the usual orangey or coppery lunar eclipse. Accompanied by a nice aurora about an hour before the start of totality, but only a few wisps of green left during the eclipse itself.

I also enjoyed making some $$ off a group of online poker players I don't usually meet, thanks to the late hour. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
