Total Eclipse of the Moon

did a search, and the only thing that came up was back in 2008.
just wanted to give anyone in the western us and canada a heads up.
looks like this one will be quite spectacular.

Dec. 2, 2011: Waking up before sunrise can be tough to do, especially on a weekend. On Saturday, Dec. 10th, you might be glad you did. A total eclipse of the Moon will be visible in the early morning skies of western Northern America.

For people in the western United States the eclipse is deepest just before local dawn. Face west to see the red Moon sinking into the horizon as the sun rises behind your back. It’s a rare way to begin the day.

Will it be visible In Europe?

Woohoo! I'm in Western United States.

I can't wait to see it

I got lucky with the one in June this year, this one won't be so great for me.
Still, always cool events.

thanks for posting I was planning on posting this on the 9th, looks like you beat me to the punch lol be sure to reply to this thread on the 9th to give everyone a heads up.


I got some great pics of the last one hopefully the clouds don't ruin it.
