Title: Lunar Eclipse was AWESOME! Post by: indianasmith on December 21, 2010, 02:50:00 AM It just hit totality here in East Texas about ten minutes ago (1:40 AM), I had stayed up for it and got my wife and kids out of bed so we could go outside and appreciate this marvel of nature together. A full lunar eclipse on the Winter Solstice; the last time this happened Henry VIII was King of England, and still married to Katherine of Aragon.
A good reminder of how brief our mortal lives are. Title: Re: Lunar Eclipse was AWESOME! Post by: LilCerberus on December 21, 2010, 03:56:34 AM Too cold & overcast to enjoy it earlier, here in Central VA, but it just now cleared up, & the red moon moved around to my window.
