I went out to look at the lunar eclipse at totality, which was around 4:30 this morning. It was spectacularly pretty. I took some photos with my phone, but they really don't really do it justice.
I thought about getting out my telescope to get a better view/photos, but the best place to set it up was in the middle of the street. I decided that was a bad plan, so I abandoned that idea.
I accidentally woke Lex up, so he got to see it, too. It turns out that the moon was perfectly positioned to be visible from the tiny window inside the guest bathroom. Lex didn't even have to go outside to see it.
The moon was red, with just a tiny sliver of bright silver light on one side. Super pretty. Worth getting out of bed and putting on some boots and coat to take a gander.
