Best One Until 2014.
Parts of four continents will be treated to a view of a total eclipse of the moon during the overnight hours of Dec. 20 to Dec. 21. This spectacle of celestial shadows will be the best of its kind residents of North America will see until the year 2014.
This NASA lunar eclipse chart shows the visibility of the eclipse from different regions around the world.

Well that totally sucked!!
Went outside for our usual 3:00am coffee/smoke break at work last night and wouldn't you know it it was cloudy AND snowing. And to add insult to injury at 7:00am when I left work... it was clear skys....

Hopefully someone, somewwhere was able to see it and get some pix of it.

Better luck next time I guess.....

The Pliades meteor shower hits us in early november ... looking forward. BTW ... nasa tested a ballistic on a harmless rock .. which had been missing us for ever .. they rated the idea as a success. They also shifted it's path. By a quantum. So say hello to a planetary collision sometime.. Can't believe they didn't know that.
