Lunar eclipse happening right now!

[iPot]

yes... i was watching it... as stoned as i could (not much unfortunately )... its nice to see the reddish glow instead of the bright white one. it makes a somewhat darker, sinister atmosphere...
and while stoned and watching, i was wondering how could be watch this eclipse on the moon... there the sun would be covered by the earth, but some reddish light would come from the borders of the shadow of the earth... like a reddish ring arount a dark circle... it think it would be an awesome vision... and the lunar paisage, filled with craters and dust, would only increase the strangeness and beauty of it...

Wow I was thinking about the same thing the other day. No-one has ever witnessed an earth-sol eclipse, obviously. We sent men to the moon to play golf but not that. The only thing that you can be sure almost every creature that ever walked the earth will have cast eyes on the moon, and the stars also... I guess the whole lunar landscape would turn red.

The "Hunter's Moon" or sometimes the "Blood Moon." It gets its name from hunters who tracked and killed their prey by autumn moonlight, stockpiling food for the winter ahead. You can picture them: silent figures padding through the forest, the moon overhead, pale as a corpse, its cold light betraying the creatures of the wood.

At first it will seem pale and cold, as usual. And then ... blood red.

What makes the eclipsed moon turn red? The answer lies inside Earth's shadow:

Our planet casts a long shadow. It starts on the ground--Step outside at night. You're in Earth's shadow. Think about it!--and it stretches almost a million miles into space, far enough to reach the moon.

Suppose you had a personal spaceship. Here's your mission: Tonight, at midnight, blast off and fly down the middle of Earth's shadow. Keep going until you're about 200,000 miles above Earth, almost to the moon. Now turn around and look down. The view from your cockpit window is Earth's nightside, the dark half of our planet opposite the sun. But it's not completely dark! All around Earth's limb, the atmosphere glows red.

What you're seeing is every sunrise and sunset on Earth--all at once. This ring of light shines into Earth's shadow, breaking the utter darkness you might expect to find there. Turn off the cockpit lights. There's a lovely red glow.
