[Fredslist] Lunar Eclipse

[bonnie schinagle]

Neal De Grasse Tyson, the astrophysicist from the American Museum of Natural
History characterized the complete lunar eclipse is "the longest, slowest
most boring celestial spectacle."  He's right, but here I am, up watching
anyway, along with my husband and eldest daughter.  It is interesting.  20
minutes ago, I observed a bright, full moon.  Now, a sliver is shaded.  This
won't happen again until 2094.  There is something awesome about observing
this event with my child.
