Eclipse tomorrow (the blood moon)

So our shadow is cast over the moon tomorrow.

I think it's about 11.30pm

The moon will go Blood Red (spooky) prior to the eclipse.

At this rate i'll be asleep but I hope to see it.

Will keep an eye out. Hope it looks as good as it sounds.

think its 11:23 cloud depending.

Hey.....

By all accounts the blood moon signified a change toward the red of the devil.......

must be an omen !

Utd !

Will be watching for this! Wish I could get my kids to take an interest in school outside of school hours, it would be a neat thing to go and watch together.

But you know teenagers, it's the weekend and there are video games to be played!

Sounds very dramatic, might let the kids tay up if the cloudcover is not too bad. I`ll blame it on Uncle Philip if they are tired tomorrow.

Yep

Blame it on me.

Not sure if it will be a clear sky. Hope so.

STARGAZERS in Edinburgh are set for a great view of the most spectacular total eclipse of the moon in years.

Weather forecasters predict the east of Scotland should enjoy clear skies for the celestial event, which will see the full moon turn coppery red or orange.

Dan Hillier, visitor centre manager at the Royal Observatory in Edinburgh, said: "The eclipse will last a couple of hours so you don't need a completely clear sky to see it. A short break in the clouds will be enough.

"The great thing about a lunar eclipse is that it's really easy to see. You don't need a telescope to find the moon. You can watch from your bedroom window, or by taking a walk down the street. It's that simple."

Dramatic views of the eclipse, at its height from 10.24pm to 11.58pm, are promised almost everywhere in the UK.

The phenomenon occurs when the Earth passes directly between the Moon and the Sun.

In ancient times a "blood moon" was viewed with dread and seen as an omen of disaster.

Well predicted.

It starts at 8.16pm and be at its most amazing between 10.25pm and 11.58pm.
