Ok, thx for sharing. I don't care much. There's lots of snow here. The sky is already cover with clouds of snow, almost all lunar light is hidden

I'd like to see it but I would probably have to do a bit of research to find out where's the best spot to view it. However if that spot is found, add a few beers and friends, then there's a good night to be had.

I remember this like.. maybe a year or two ago. This is the one where the moon looks orange right? When is it when you are not suppose to look at the moon? I think thats when the moon is in the middle of the earth and sun.

Well, since this will be a lunar eclipse and not a solar eclipse.. no warnings need be given regarding potential damage to eyes.
