There is a Lunar Eclipse happening right now! Clear night. Full moon. Look in the south sky, up high. It's been going on since about 8:00. In a few minutes the moon will be dark and then it will start light up on the other side. Very cool. | ||

Signed on here about 10 minutes ago. Thanks for the reminder! I'm out in the country with zero street lights - the view is amazing! Just a sliver of the moon coming through. It was so dark out I couldn't see my hand in front of me. | ||

I'll bet the view of the earth from the moon during an eclipse is something to see. I would think the earth's atmosphere would be brilliant around our planet. | ||

Googling "Earth eclipse" found Eclipses of the Sun by the Earth, seen from the Moon. Scroll down to "2. ECLIPSES OF THE SUN SEEN FROM THE MOON" | ||

Some mathematics associated with that...wow! Anyway, very profound thinking. |
