I wanted so badly to see the last one, but just my luck I fell asleep from studying for an exam and missed it. cries I’m crossing my fingers on the next one. -

I may be a little biased on this one, because the night of the actual eclipse was actually THE worst night of my life, so generally it was not worth watching because I will always have that mark on that night. There was a lunar eclipse and a truck crashed into my friend’s fence and my best friend committed suicide. So generally it sucked. But yeah, if I wasn’t dying inside I might have found it nice.

Just checked that the next one that should be seen from Europe is on the 16th of August.

A hunter’s moon is a lot better.

With the Lunar eclipse, the moon is orange and high up in the sky. Just a teensy, tiny spec.

A hunter’s moon is close to the ground, and is HUGE. You can see all the craters and everything very easily, w/out binoculars or anything.



Thanks to Schweffy 21 months ago

Thanks to Schweffy alerting me as it was beginning, I was able to see the lunar eclipse. It looked really cool. The moon looked red and even purple at one point. I don’t think I have ever had this experience before and I’m glad to have had it now :)

haven't seen one in years 21 months ago

i watched the beginning of the eclipse on my way home from work and proceeded to spend close to an hour sitting outside with my camera pointed upward. it was a lovely celestial show, and i managed to snap a few really great photos (of the 30-some i shot, i’m quite pleased with about five of them). and i’m glad my fiance and i had a chance to watch it together, which made it even more enjoyable.

can’t wait for 2010’s eclipse—hopefully we’ll be watching it from vermont instead of jersey.
