Just saw one the web that the Moon is going to go through a full eclipes on Sat.10,11
I guess it will be better on the west coast and in the evening, on the east coast it will be in the morning. But you better google it just to make sure when, I am tired and might not have gotten that right. I will google it friday again so I can remember ha!

Thanks for the heads-up Erv. Now hopefully Mother Nature will cooperate.

Welcome, looks like I am going to wakeup to 2-4 inches of partly cloudy on saturday. :( But still going to give it a try.

Let's make a 1 day photo "contest" and have everyone post their photos of the eclipes. We could all learn from the experience and be ready for 2014.

Great idea!
I'll set one up if that is ok with you guys...

I'm trying to find someone locally that wants to join me a lunar eclipse photo excursion.
:D

No takers yet,

Hi,

Of course it is the same actual time for everyone. I think I saw 4:45 AM PST for total on the left coast. That would be 7:45 EST on the right coast...as in sunrise depending on how far north you are.

Regards,
Larry Leach

Here is the timeline for the eclipse:

Penumbral Eclipse Begins: 11:33:32 UT
Partial Eclipse Begins: 12:45:42 UT
Total Eclipse Begins: 14:06:16 UT
Greatest Eclipse: 14:31:49 UT
Total Eclipse Ends: 14:57:24 UT
Partial Eclipse Ends: 16:17:58 UT
Penumbral Eclipse Ends: 17:30:00 UT

On the west coast we are -8 hours from Universal Time
Our Moonset is at 6:52, leaving ~5 minutes of totality (and the end) we won't be able to see :-(

I'm looking forward to seeing LOTS of photos from everyone :thumbup:
