Lunar Exclipse

Well, if I work out too hard my muslces get sore and I become very irritable. I also get irritable when I know I am correct and people continue to do something stupid even when told what is correct.

So being as I am really irritable at the moment for all of the above reasons I checked the weather site to see if the moon was full and all of the loonies were out in full force.

That reminded me that there will be a lunar eclipse on February 20th. It is supposed to be pretty good. I tried my hand at night photography once with wierd results.

For those of you who might like to try with better knowledge and equipment than me, you can go out and stand in the snow and take pictures if it is not cloudy.

Well, I guess I better stick to engineering as I can't spell the astronomical terms
Eclipse, Exclipse or something is likely to happen

In case you can't make that one, NASA has a calendar of eclipses for the next 5,000 years.

You ever wondered what astronomers do during the day time? Make calendars for the next 1,000 years is what.

And being that I live in Wisconsin, Feb 20 is bound to be cloudy.
