Total Lunar Eclipse

Key-J · **Posted:** Tue Aug 28, 2007 9:33 am

An Unusual Event,

Tonight, starting in a few hours actually. Indonesia, and other places around the world will pay witness to a Total Lunar Eclipse.

This Lunar Eclipse will be the longest and deepest in 7 years. So it's something special to look forward to.

Hopefully if the skies clear a big more, it will be better and ill post up some picture's of the nights event. I might even be able to capture a good one of the Golden/Orange moon.

So guys, be on the look out for changes around the sky, if you are lucky enough to be in a place where you can expereince it then take a picture and let us see.

If you wana know if you will be in a place where you can experience the Eclipse. Then check out:

This map should give you a quick view of where the Eclipse should be visible.

In Windows Media Player hit CTRL+U and enter in mms://134.129.215.84:80 as the url. Also, seven minutes for me.

Wow, nice pix.

I myself didnt get to take any really pimp pictures, and it's still going on here... Just about hit full...

It is SERIOUSLY FREAKING hard to take a picture through a telescope, and it was just my luck that my sister took my camera on her trip... so i had to use my phone, through my telescope.... It was like mission impossible, but i got one. like... viewable..

It's kinda funny, i bought that telescope YEARS ago when i was still like a child, first time ive used it if memory serves me... Hahaha..
