Great shot. Very beautiful eclipse tonight. Heard on the radio that there won't be another one until 2010. I'm sure that's just predominantly for my area though.

No, that's everywhere. Lunar eclipses are pretty much global whereas solar are localized. (Easier for the Earth to block the Sun than it is for the Moon to block it.)

What school do you go to? I graduated from PITT.

BayAreaE92 · 02-21-2008, 07:57 PM

Carnegie Mellon
Didja go for Pitt for Grad or Under?

ksfrogman · 02-21-2008, 08:02 PM

I found out about it too late. What about the satellite fragments?
