For the first time since 1638, a total lunar eclipse will be visible from North America on the longest night of the year. That night just happens to be tonight, starting at 1:32 AM, so all you moon-oglers will have to stay up awfully late (or wake up perversely early) to catch it.

the big deal is that the eclipse hasn't happened on the longest night in the year since 1638

Aside from the fact that it will be the first to occur on the day of Winter Solstice in 372 years, this lunar eclipse will be followed by a meteor shower named as Ursids which is expected to peak on December 22 to 23, 2010


DOPE

To clear everyone up ( I only got a couple posts down, I don't want anyone to miss it), it's about 11:36 pm mountain time. So 1:36 am Eastern? It runs for about 3 hours. It only occurs on the solstice day every 436 years or so. So if you miss it tonight, you might not get to see it again.

I expect pics from those people with the fancy DSLRs.

It's gonna be red. Not exactly something to blow a ton of frames on unless you're in the mountains or somewhere cool. Aka my backyard is not nice scenery for taking photos of the moon. I have superia 1600 and ektar.

I wish I had a camera tonight. I live in the mountains, in a forest. In the middle of nowhere. No light pollution. Clear enough skies. Perfect stuff.
