Re: There is a Lunar Eclipse tonight 2/20/08
We had great viewing weather in Kansas tonight, but damn cold (13?, or so) for the first half of the eclipse but then cloud cover moved in.
For Christmas we got our sons a telescope that finds and tracks objects automatically (from a drop down menu, uploaded, or coordinates). It kept the Moon centered perfectly through the whole thing. I had a plastic telescope with cheap plastic lenses growing up, so this thing is light-years ahead.
I've been watching the updates on the satellite that's coming down, but the angles are too low to see from home with all the light pollution and it's too cold to hoof it out to the sticks.

Damm I missed it - after my 23rd whisky I was completely incapable - I thought I was watching it but then realised that it was a patio table blocking my entire view of the sky
