Total eclipse of the moon

Tonight's "super, blood, wolf moon"... after a cloudy, cloudy day, it cleared up beautifully in time to see the eclipse. This was just after it reached totality.

Yes - excellent shot! Nice :o)
We've had clear skies in the Netherlands and I was determined to go out around 5:30 to enjoy this, but was bound home due to my care-buddy being dismissed from the hospital yesterday and needing all the care she could get at home. Better luck next time ... two more this century I believe it was? Cheers, Arp Posted 6 years ago

  I wasn't aware Europe was going to get to see it too. We were luck enough to have it happen at around 8pm, so it was good and dark. The next one I'll be able to see here will be in 2021, but I don't think it will also be a super moon. It sounds like Europe may have to wait until 2029 for a good look - there are a couple of others before then, but they will happen so close to moon rise and moon set that you won't get to see the whole eclipse. Hope your friend has a speedy recovery! Posted 6 years ago

    The news here said 2037 as the next one.

Wow1 Look at that! I saw a part of the moon still covered by the eclipse this morning while traveling to work between 6-7:30 am :-) Posted 6 years ago, modified 6 years ago
