In case you have not yet heard, there is to be a lunar eclipse this weekend. Where I live in the Pacific NW of the United States, we will have a great view of it Saturday morning just before dawn as the moon is setting. It will begin at 4:45 AM. The moon will be engulfed by the red shadow by 6:05 AM. For information on this eclipse and what will happen check out this video from ScienceCasts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKtNgD45OB4&feature=youtube_gdata_player
