Lunar Eclipse.

[Mitchell]

I know it was very early in the morning, Eastern time, and basically the middle of the night in other US time zones.

Did anyone happen to see the Lunar Eclipse this morning?

I awakened at 4 am Eastern, and looked outside.

My apartment has a Western exposure, so I see the sunset, and the moonset if the moon sets in the morning,. especially if there is a nearly full or full moon.

I saw at least most of the Lunar Eclipse.

As the eclipse was ending, when the coverage of the moon was over, there was a 100% full moon this morning, and I was able to see that as well.

Any thoughts on the Lunar Eclipse?

Yeh, too early for me. The further west you went, likely the better viewing, if'n I remember how the earth rotates and how the view goes. If you saw it, kudos! As I remember some of the articles coming up on it, we won't see another like it for something like 600 years. I won't be waiting, will likely be asleep again.....

I'll always remember when my Mom dragged me half dead out of my bed to see a blue Moon (aka the moon glowing blue). I was so angry the next morning as I couldn't get back to sleep. LOL.

Yes, I saw this... pretty cool.

Thank you for this thread! 😀 A rare event!

Someone also shared this excellent Lunar Eclipse picture with me, and I will do the same, since I now truly understand the expression

"Mooning."
