I just stood in the front yard and watched the last 10 minutes of the eclipse. I'd call the color a dull orange, I guess.

It eclipsed fully at 0355 MT but the southern half had a slightly brighter glow than the northern, which eclipsed earlier. Interesting: about 3 minutes before the full eclipse, a falling star shot down toward the southern horizon, almost crossing the moon.

Isn't Mercury or Mars supposed to travel closer to the earth this month than in the last skillion years? I thought I read that somewhere. It's supposed to appear twice (or more) the size of the moon.

There you have it. If you missed watching or recording it, you get all the benefits just by reading the last three posts. And....you're welcome! ((( )))
