Lunar Eclipse on Winter Solstice!
« on: 19-12-2010, 20:12:25 »
"As many as 1.5 billion people worldwide will be able to watch when the Earth's shadow creeps across the moon's surface early Tuesday morning, the first time in hundreds of years that a lunar eclipse will fall on the winter solstice.

With the full moon high in the winter sky, the lunar eclipse will be visible from four continents, with the best views from North America and Central America if weather permits, scientists say."

It falls on the same day I set forth to the wild, untamed wilderness of Punta Gorda, Florida!  An unspeakably bad omen the Moon shall be destroyed on the height of heathen holidays! I fear for our lives.

Here in Finland we call that "summer".

Thought it was tomorrow? Way to early anyway.
I'm taking my own freedom
puttin' it in my song
singing loud and strong
proving all day long
I'm takin' my freedom
puttin' it in my stroll
I'll be hop-steppin' y'all
lettin' the joy unfold

would've been cooler if it were a solar eclipse. Imagine how dark that day would be.

A forum that does not embrace a stylie is flawed.
