Reminder: Plan for the Lunar Eclipse
As we reported a week ago, there’s going to be a lunar eclipse on October 27/28 which will be visible from the Americas and Western Europe. This’ll be the last chance to see a total lunar eclipse for a while, so I highly suggest – no, I demand – that you set aside some time on Wednesday evening to enjoy it. We’re having an eclipse party with some friends.
If it’s cloudy in your area, or you live in a part of the world that just can’t see it, don’t worry, I’ll be putting together my regular list of astrocameras focused on the Moon. If you’re going to be broadcasting coverage of the eclipse onto the Internet, please email me at info@universetoday.com so that we can get as complete a coverage as possible.
Thanks!
