Total lunar eclipse of April 4, 2015

[Cosmic Penguin]

Today one of the shortest total lunar eclipse ever in several centuries will occur. Due to the Moon barely entering the shadow of the Earth, the total lunar eclipse will last a meager 4 minutes, 43 seconds!

I will be watching from home, where the eclipse will be perfectly timed at 8 pm during the Easter holidays. Members here at the American west coast/mid-west can see this eclipse in the early morning hours.

Anyone waiting to watch this one? :tiphat:

Yea, I wasn't able to see the total eclipse either but I got this shot of the Moon a few hours before hand.
