| | Last night (well, if you live outside of Canada or the US then it was probably the afternoon, but I live in Canada, so I'm saying this from my point of view), the moon became blocked by the Earth for an event that happens about once every three years.
That night, I went to my friend (name undetermined)'s house to look through his telescope at the moon. We noticed that it was quite bright red and that we could see the redness with the naked eye.
Did anyone else see it? What did you think? |

yea i watched it a few times... pretty cool some guy was in a corn field next to our house with a ski mask and a telescope... it was kinda funny/creepy/weird considering yesterday was the coldest day in like 5 years here. but last night was the eclipse, and today is my 18th birthday, so im feeling some kind of prophecy going on here

Yep I saw it as well including saturn, I wish I a telescope to see it though  because it would have been awesome to see. I saw a dull red on the east coast and not a complete red though, but still waiting for that blue moon though  . Now we get to wait a whoel two years for next one so it should be interesting what cosmic events happen till then.

Doesnt come often down in Australia either. Considering the unusual work hours for me, only got to see it through news clips on the internet or on television.

Full Moon Effects
Does light or temp of the moon really have anything to do with the way (11) I am sure that you all have heard people use a full moon to explain weird behavior. So is this an
energy that we are unfimiliar with or is it some type of exuse that has been passed down by people
for years? Well if you look at it scientifically what is happening is light is being reflected
off of the moon from the sun which is out of view. Over a course of days the amount of light lessens
as the earth begins to block out the suns light to the moon. My question is what is the difference
between the day of the full moon and the day after. This should have no effect o....
Total Lunar Eclipse - August 28
(2) For all those who like to gaze at the stars or the moon, or even those who don't, on August 28th
there is going to be a lunar eclipse. That means that the Earth is going to be in between the sun
and moon casting a shadow over the moon. You will still see an orange glow around the moon which is
what makes it cool. The article says that the west coast of North America will have the best view
of the eclipse being able to see it the entire time period. Those in the eastern hemisphere will
not see it August 28th early in the morning but rather in the evening of that d....

tutorial that tells you how to make a helloWorld app with swt and jFace, and also has an example
file explorer that you can make. They both work perfectly from inside eclipse, but when I try and
export either one into a .jar file, they don't work anymore. It comes up with a message saying

Does The Moon Have Any Influence Over Us?
(23) So we're pretty sure that the whole werewolf thing isn't real, but does the moon influence
us in other more subtle ways? The words "lunacy" and "lunatic" are derived from the Latin word for
moon, "luna." It was believed that people who acted strangely were under the influence of the moon.
In the olden days, women's cycles were set to the rise and fall of the moon. In fact women's
cycles are 28 days as is the lunar month rather than the Roman calendar months. Here's my
postulation: We know that the moon does have influence over tides and water since w....
