Have you set your alarm clock?
Lunar eclipse tonight. It's now or never..

quote:
On Nov. 19, a partial lunar eclipse will reward patient sky observers with a view of a subtly changing moon and is a must-see event as it's the last lunar eclipse of the year. The moon may even take on a reddish hue.

Lunar eclipses occur when the moon passes into the Earth's shadow. In this case, the partial eclipse phase will last 3 hours, 28 minutes and 24 seconds, and the full eclipse for 6 hours and 1 minute, making it the longest partial eclipse in 580 years, according to Indiana's Holcomb Observatory.

At maximum eclipse, the moon's face will be 97% covered by the deepest part of the Earth's shadow and will probably turn a deep red, the observatory said. November's full moon is traditional known as the Beaver Moon, as beavers are preparing for winter, hence this month's event's Beaver Moon eclipse moniker.

Played a solo piano concert Thursday night at 9. I’m about dead. No eclipse for me.

I actually saw it! It was about 5:15 and about half was in shadow. I just happened to wake up to pee.

Got up at 1:45.
Impressed.
Glad I saw it, it may be hard to get up the next time it happens.
Wish I had gotten my binoculars out.

I was awake at the time, but it was rainy here. And I forgot about it, and didn’t look!

If it was raining, you probably wouldn’t have seen it anyway. It was raining here till about 4 a.m. but clear skies after that…so got to see some of it.
