Last edited Sat Sep 26, 2015, 05:30 PM - Edit history (1)

will it be seen? And it's supposed to be red?

Should put this post in science, but I think it's for general discussion as well....who doesn't care about a lunar eclipse?

For the first time in more than 30 years, you can witness a supermoon in combination with a lunar eclipse. Late on Sept. 27, 2015, in the U.S. and much of the world, a total lunar eclipse will mask the moon’s larger-than-life face.

Watch NASA’s live stream from 8:00 p.m. until at least 11:30 p.m. EDT broadcast from Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., with a live feed from the Griffith Observatory, Los Angeles, Calif. Mitzi Adams, a NASA solar physicist at Marshall will discuss the eclipse and answer questions from Twitter. To ask a question, use #askNASA.

Throughout human history, lunar eclipses have been viewed with awe and sometimes fear. Today, we know that a total lunar eclipse happens when the full moon passes through the darkest part of Earth's shadow, the umbra.

Sunday’s supermoon eclipse will last 1 hour and 11 minutes, and will be visible to North and South America, Europe, Africa, and parts of West Asia and the eastern Pacific. Weather permitting, you can see the supermoon after nightfall, and the eclipse will cast it into shadow beginning at 8:11 p.m. EDT. The total eclipse starts at 10:11 p.m. EDT, peaking at 10:47 p.m. EDT.



Lots of other information. Can be watched on computer, NA site.

Time to get naked, put on the body paint and feathers, and dance around a fire in the Veggie Garden.
If the moon doesn't come back from the Dragon, you will know it is because we didn't please the Dragon
with our offerings.

Anybody have a young virgin they aren't using?
