Its going to dissapear forever:o


nah i think a lunar eclipse is when the sun earth and moon line up in that order. The earth blocks the suns like from the moon so it dims out and turns wierd orangeish colors... Not sure what time.

Last night wasn't anything toooo special... I did wake up for it, and I did snap some pics of it. I still haven't checked to see how they turned out... =]

They should be good... there was a few where I left the shudder open for many seconds/mins.

Anyway, it's 430am and I just got back from fishing. Time to go to sleep before work tomorrow! :mad:
