Lunar Eclipse

I was expecting to see a humungous thread about the lunar eclipse tonight, what the hell is wrong with you guys?!?! I was up on page mill about 3/4ths of the way up watching it, and although it was the first one i've seen in a while, it was definitely cool as hell. it's so cool to be able to see the moon so clearly and actually think that it's a "little ball" floating out in space VERY far away. It just looks to much closer for some reason.

Oh and I'll be expecting a "dude, lunar eclipses aren't even that cool I've seen at least 40 of them." response from dan.

man, you're making this too easy...


looks like it's about to be a big salad tossin party over there. but is the whole s&m thing really necessary? and you should be careful messing around with the bag that dan's telescope goes in.

Great night guys... Few guys came by...

Man, it's SOOO much better looking at the eclipse through my scope, than it is with the naked eye!

Naked eye would have been borning as hell... something about watching the shadows creep over the crators like that was DOPE.

Thanks for coming by!
