Anyone else out there getting a glimpse of the total lunar eclipse?
Here’s what star/moongazers need to know:
Wednesday’s total eclipse phase will last nearly an hour. Earth’s shadow is expected to blot out the moon beginning around 7 p.m. on the West Coast and 10 p.m. on the East Coast. West Coast skygazers will miss the start of the eclipse because it occurs before the moon rises.

Your photo looks more like Mars, ST.
Yup, dead centered that sucker. Of course, the response is predictable. If it’d have missed, the Dems would whine about how we’re wasting all of this money on missile defense, now that it was a success they’ll say we’re guilty of aggressively destabilizing the world, militarizing space, and generally being mean to the Chinese and Russians, and needlessly threatening the N Koreans and Iranians.
TOTAL cloud cover in Loooosiana
