Beautiful Eclipse
It is three o'clock in the morning, PST, and I've been watching the total lunar eclipse visible to those in the Pacific region. The moon will remain in the shadow of the Earth for the approximately the next 75 minutes before reemerging.

I just wanted to take the time to comment that the moon looks perfectly natural to me in the state of penumbra. Having the reflective glare removed from sight, that lunar feature which has historically been looked at so romantically, is like a relief to my eyes (maybe I really have been staring at computer screens for too much of my day).
