so i stayed up for the eclipse last night and it was awesome! i was still writing stuff at 1:40am when i realized it was on! the rare cosmic coincidence of the winter solstice and a total lunar eclipse hasn't happened for three centuries, so i ran outside and saw a quarter of the moon consumed by the earth's shadow...i checked it out an hour or so later and saw three quarter of the moon hidden: it really was awesome and i am sorry if you missed it! catch it again in 2094.

total lunar eclipse
i am not sure if i will be setting my alarm tonight to wake me up at 1:30 am to view the beginning of the only total eclipse of the moon this year...at 2:41 it will fade to black until about 3:50am. this eclipse coincides with the date of the winter solstice: skies are clear...might be cool.
