Whose watching the Lunar Eclipse? A gorgeous red moon.:cool1: You have until approximately 11.45pm to catch it.
 
Been watching on and off for the past two hours now :)

It's absolutely gorgeous! Earlier this evening the moon was such a bright white and its been amazing watching it become redder! Thank goodness for clear skies tonight. :cool2:
 
I've been going outside ever 10 mins for since 8:20. It looks cool right now, like it is wearing a white hat!! Quite wierd!
 

DH is out there right now taking sequence photographs, I keep nipping out but its too cold to stay out long. The lads are watching Match of the Day and keep popping out to have a look. Its not red here though, there is a bit of white showing on the top and a vague outline of the whole of the moon is just visible, but very interesting to see.

Thats what it looks like here. :thumbsup2
 
Just come in from watching it - definitely a red tinge with the naked eye but no so obvious with a telescope. Spectacular in any event :woohoo:
 
A quick piccie:

Cool pic, I was just saying to DH that I wished our digital camera took a better picture!! Oh well, more justification to get a better one before out DL trip!!!!
 
Great picture Richard, doesn't look like that from here, was bright earlier on but a bit misty now

Great pic I took a couplke which i'll post later, it didn't look red from here. It just had a white cap.
 
Great photo :thumbsup2

I watched the eclipse until the moon 'disappeared' but didn't realise there'd be anything else noteworthy to see once that had happened, and went to bed! :rolleyes:

This morning DD said "did you see the fantastic red moon?"
 
Thanks for the picture Richard. I was wondering whether we'd be able to see the eclpse in the dark. Just goes to show how much I know about Astronomy.. :crazy:
