Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | This is about the best I got. Focus a little off despite a tripod. Good night. Thanks for the astronomy lesson!

| Any luck, Sandy? This would be the time to go out. You have about 20 minutes or so until the moon starts coming out of our shadow.

| Tibbe got me up about 2:30 a.m. to take him potty outside and we saw the Blood Moon at a nice medium shade of "red". We live in the Dallas area. It was pretty high in the sky and very striking to see the moon any color other than that bright whitish look - very pretty.

| Nice shots, Mike. It was too cloudy here in S.C. too see anything and is pouring rain right now.

| I thought that star next to the moon was Spica, but its proximity kept me from seeing its normal bright blue color. I actually shouldn't say star, since Spica is a binary system of two stars orbiting each other.

A few minutes later he also simulates exactly what happened with the moon last night by shining white light into a liquid solution of very fine particles that scatter off all the blue light. The video above is a nontechnical lecture. If you want the version that he gives to his actual MIT class with all the math I can post that one too. As for astronomy, I took a couple of free courses on coursera last year, having known almost nothing other than the physics before. An astronomy course from Duke and then a course on galaxies and cosmology from Caltech.

| Thanks for the video links - going to watch those this weekend. We have 3 more of these to go over a few years so I want to learn more.
