For those who don't know

There is a lunar eclipse tomorrow. It will be the last total lunar eclipse until 2010.

No problem. I'm going to dig out my digital camera and take some pics of it tomorrow night. (While probably freezing my ass off.)

THANK you! I was just thinking the other day that I hadn't seen one of these in ages!

Just remember... it's tomorrow. If you freeze your ass off looking for it tonight, it's not my fault. :P

You expected something other than smartassery from him?

Yeah.. that'd be about as *likely* as a lunar eclipse... got a point there lol.

That's the kind you can look at without eyewear right?

Yeah, as a kid mom put the fear of god in me about looking at a total solar eclipse because I'd go blind. It literally made me afraid to go outside the one time we had one.

But I think the lunar ones are safe.

Yep... All the light is being blocked by the Earth being in the way. Now of course if we get a super massive GRB go off at the same time, well... you are hosed. Of course so is everyone else on the planet.
