Lunar Eclipse
I watched the eclipse last night from the roof of our apartment building. I started watching at 8:43, and went inside for the last time around ten. I didn't watch continuously because it was cold, but I went inside and back out again about four or five times during the course of the hour. The moon was slightly less visible each time I went outside. By the end, it was completely obscured by a burnt orange haze.
I didn't take any pictures of the eclipse, but for those of you who missed it, I found this video of the 3/3/07 lunar eclipse on YouTube. Check out the video - it's pretty spectacular.
