Miss, Hit

We missed the eclipse, what with us being in the wrong hemisphere and all, but Wired has some pretty cool pictures of the lunar event here.

Another space show we missed was captured on video:



Now that's the kind of work I like to see done with my tax dollars.

Total Eclipse Tonight... Except in Asia

Yeah. There's a total lunar eclipse tonight, unless of course, you live in Eastern Asia. Here's a nice graphic from NASA (click for the large, easy-to-read version). I won't be able to see any of the action, so you can do your own damn math to figure your best viewing time.


(Seriously: Korea is right in the middle of the S.O.L. zone. Oh, well.)



Also: I added four more designs to my CafePress shop. Look over in the sidebar for the links. There's no pressure to buy, I just enjoy sharing. Heh. Heheh.

Inconstant Moon

I hope you'll have clear skies for tomorrow's lunar eclipse. There's a viewing guide here, or here. In anticipation of the light show, enjoy a couple pictures from last night's moon-set over Yudal-san (Mt. Yudal.)

The pictures here don't really do justice to what was a beautiful sight: the moon setting behind the mountain's mist-shrouded peak was all very Lord of the Rings and worth every mosquito bite I received while taking the photos.
