lunar eclipse tuesday

"While walking on the moon one day, in the merry merry month of ..... December...."

Who said that?... I remember somebody singing that..... Pete Conrad, Apollo 12 maybe?

Anyhow I was messing around at Brighton beach next tuesday Dec 21, and I noticed a total solar eclipse, which means a total lunar eclipse here on earth.

I don't know which is cooler, that I remembered somebody singing that on the moon, or discovering a lunar eclipse in orbiter.

Who was it that sang those words on the moon?

Will there really be a lunar eclipse on December the 21st, or just in Orbiter? If it's in the real world too, then it's awesome because it's on a Tuesday!!:woohoo::woohoo:

There is a real one, right after the moon sets in Europe... :thumbsdown:

I can only remember that it was on Apollo 17.

That's mega-weird, it's on a tuesday, and I'm going to the museum of science and industry that day. That would be the museum where the Apollo 8 CM is...

Why does it need the timezone?
I won't be at the museum during the eclipse. The eclipse will be around 2 AM where I live.
