[meteorite-list] Total Lunar Eclipse
Hello All, ...past midnight here in Switzerland and I just met with a lot of people at the observatory that is a few blocks from my flat here in Bern. We all enjoyed and still enjoy a total eclipse of the Moon. The sky is clear and the temperatures are very mild for this time of the year. A WOW could be heard from the crowd when a light shooting star crossed the red moon. WOW indeed!

Re: [meteorite-list] Total Lunar Eclipse
Hi Peter, Bernd, and Listees, That's fascinating: please count me in - I've seen that shooting star too, also slightly West of the Red Moon! Tripple WOW :-) Enjoy the eclipse, whereever you are! All the best from Southern Germany, Norbert PS: Of course, any lunar eclipse can be best enjoyed with a piece of the Moon in your hands ,-) -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Hi List, The total lunar eclipse is in full swing and I just caught a glimpse of the totally eclipsed Moon through an opening in the clouds.

Re: [meteorite-list] Total Lunar Eclipse
Hi Peter, list , - I can absolutely confirm this, only with the slight difference that the shooting star passed by closely to the moon - a shift of perspective, probably caused by the difference between Switzerland and Germany ;-) The moon: tremendous. Reminded me of Bert Brecht's and Kurt Weill's ,Dreigroschenoper' (Three Penny Opera): POLLY: Oh, last night I had a dream. I was looking out the window and I heard laughter in the street, and when I POLLY. Ach, gestern hatte ich einen Traum. Da sah ich aus dem Fenster and hörte ein Gelächter in der Gasse, und window and I heard laughter in the street, and when Ilooked out I saw our moon and the moon was all thin like a worn-down penny. aus dem Fenster and hörte ein Gelächter in der Gasse, und wie ich hinaus sah, sah ich unseren Mond, und der Mond war ganz dünn, wie ein Penny, der schon abgegriffen ist. war ganz dünn, wie ein Penny, der schon abgegriffen ist.

Good night, good morning, g'day - Matthias Bärmann (Laupheim/Germany) looked out I saw our moon and the moon was all thin like a worn-down penny. aus dem Fenster and hörte ein Gelächter in der Gasse, und wie ich hinaus sah, sah ich unseren Mond, und der Mond war ganz dünn, wie ein Penny, der schon abgegriffen ist.

Dear List; Lunar eclipse in Wyoming was interesting but nothing to leave the house about. I spent an hour sitting on a 7,000 foot elevation hill in town, waiting, waiting, waiting. A red moon with a mysterious clouded upper right-hand corner came up about dusk. Moon rose, and was full. Yawn. I have pictures. Dave F.

Re: [meteorite-list] Total Lunar Eclipse
Sorry about the german text, but its too late. More tomorrow Guten Morgen :) Auch von mir noch schnell ein quick and dirty Foto von der Mondfinsternis gerade eben. Das Wetter hat prima mitgespielt, pünktlich zum Anfang hat es aufgeklart. Während der Totalität sogar richtig gutes Seeing und windstill. Der große Wettergott hatte ein Einsehen mit mir ;) http://www.sternhimmel-ueber-ulm.de/scratch/MoFi2007.jpg Das Bild ist NICHT bearbeitet, nur verkleinert. Den Rest muß ich Morgen in aller Ruhe machen. Die Aufnahme entstand kurz vor dem Finsternismaximum um 0:18 Uhr. Belichtungszeit 2s bei 400ASA mit einer Canon 20Da und einem 10 f/5.1 Birkmaier Newton. Sooo, und jetzt gehts in die Haia *gääähhhn*. Bin auch total durchgefrohren.

[meteorite-list] Total Lunar Eclipse
TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE: Set aside some time this weekend for sky watching. On Saturday night, March 3rd, there's going to be a total eclipse of the Moon. This means the Moon will glide through the heart of Earth's shadow and turn a beautiful shade of sunset red. Totality can be seen from parts of all seven continents including all of Europe and Africa and the eastern half of North America.
