Re: OT: Moon eclipse
From here it looked as if the moon were on fire. Most awe inspiring.

Re: OT: Moon eclipse
Its the refracted light from the edges of the atmosphere. It was very bright red too, skies must be clear and free of dust as well...

I wasn't making this post as Narf. I was posting it as me.
It was faintly red here.

Re: OT: Moon eclipse
It's over now... that was great!  There's a nice full moon in the sky now. My neck feels sore from looking up for so long. I wonder what people thought in ancient times looking at eclipses when they didn't know what was happening. |

Re: OT: Moon eclipse
It actually looked normal to me... but then again, it (sort of) rained yesterday in SoCal, and there wasn't as much smog in the air. So the moon was red because of the eclipse, and not the pollution :O
