Lunar eclipse!
14 years ago
So the longest lunar eclipse of the decade is coming in a couple of hours. It'll be viewable in South America, Asia, Africa, Europe and Australia. Sorry North-americans. =(
Basically, for those who are too lazy to google, the earth blocks the moon from the sun, making the moon darker, It glows red too.
Sadly, it's at 3.30AM from where I am, not sure if I can make it. It's already 1AM now.

I'm in california...
Looks like I can't see anything...
There's a "live" broadcast here: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/.....e-of-2011.html
But it's hardly as impressive as seeing it for real.
And google's main page is an awesome doodle! Live images of the current moon!
