Sorry for the late notice.

Here is a link; http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/L ... Aug28.html

Totality starts 3:53 AM PDT

Mid totality 3:37 AM PDT

Totality ends 4:22 AM

The moon should take on a distinctly red-brown tone during totality.

got up at 5:45EST this morning to see the eclipse. My husband told me about it - I had no idea.

It was really pretty, reddish-brown in color. It was amazing the number of stars we could see without all that moonshine.

Now I'm gonna try not to take a nap at work.

dammit! i forgot!

I forgot too. Here's a picture by John Pane, a member of our astronomy club:

And here is an animation of eight shots over a 20-second span.

That was John Pane from our club listserver.

Thanks for those shots. It feels like I'm actually watched it (and didn't sleep in instead ).

It was supposed to happen around 2:30 am here and my friend called me the night before to remind me. But I was up late doing homework and opted to wait for the next one. Although I;m not sure how long that'll be...

I was up late and had an early start the next day so I set the alarm and got up around 3 AM and took a quick look.

More brown than red here on the left coast.

If you click on the NASA link in my original post and scroll down the page, there is a list of more lunar eclipses for the next several years.

At the bottom of the page there are some web resource links. A couple are for lunar eclipse photography and have some outstanding images. One shows the redest eclipse I have ever seen.

John Pane obviously got a good look.

Dammit!
