mundia Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Go on, if you are one of those peeps having trouble sleeping (like me at the moment), look out of your window around 2-3am ish and if its clear enough, you will see the only lunar eclipse this year.. they are pretty spectacular when its a clear night.

dublinbay Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Am I correct in saying we won't see another one for about 8 years? Quote
mundia Posted February 20, 2008 Author Posted February 20, 2008 Oh dear isn't it really sad when you know the answers to these things? You are quite correct, it will coincide with the winter solstice in 2010 and will be fantastic if clear... Its a very clear night here at the mo Quote
Marion Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Luckily the forecast is for a clear night Quote
Andreamay Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 apparantly the best place to see it will be Cheshire Quote
Guest Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Oh I so want to stay up to see this, trouble is I'm asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow!! Not that I'm complaining. I'm going to try though Quote
Shiny Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 You can bet tonight my daughter won't wake me up. Wishful thinking. Marion, I like your new picture!! Shiny Quote
Guest Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Well Cheshire may be the best spot to see it but at the moment it is a blanket of cloud over Stockport with no signs of it lifting! Linda Quote
Beau Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 I was up in the night with a sick daughter last night and am already struggling to keep my eyes open. Doubt very much I could manage to stay awake for this one. Quote
Guest Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 I'll probably be up, like you Mundia i dont sleep very well at the moment Quote
mundia Posted February 21, 2008 Author Posted February 21, 2008 huh, clouds descended just before the event in my part of the world.. huh.. Quote
Guest Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 I watched Torchwood and fell asleep!!!! Quote
