Luna eclipse, Blood Moon.

[roitelet]

Just a heads up, there will be a total luna eclipse on the night of 27/28th July visible in the UK.

Wow...just looked up more about it....fingers crossed it's not cloudy!
Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks roitelet

Brilliant thanks. Let's hope it's not overcast still on Friday.

Scratch that. Just looked it up. It's below the horizon when it all happens anyway

I think you'll still see the moon fully eclipsed on the horizon SP, just not the start or middle of it?

[Bren In Pots]

Bumping the thread because the eclipse is this evening.

Thanks, Bren.

Did anyone look at it yesterday? It looked larger than some of the so-called supermoons and was golden rather than silvery. Don't know if it's heat or dust that changes the colour, but I sat a while just looking at it

Who wants to see a blood moon when you can watch the streaks of lightening through the rain streaming down the windows

Rain? Real wet stuff?

If it doesn't rain here soon I shall have to resort to this...

[Bren In Pots]

It's to cloudy here

[Snoop Puss]

^Here too. Stars up above but a big bank of cloud between me and the moon.

[Nicos]

Partly cloudy here..mostly just where the moon is
We do have the added bonus of sheet lightning flickering around...but that's not quite what I was hoping to see.
Might stay up a while longer and see if the clouds shift...ya never know eh?
