THIS SUCKS!

How can you mention it at such short notice? This Eclipse should have been mentioned well before today.

I'm annoyed. Why? Cos it was purely by chance I happened to look up at the sky and thought "hey, the moon's a bit red, wonder why?" Only to hear AFTER THE FACT that it was an Eclipse!!!!

I like watching an Eclipse as much as the next person. Now I have to wait until 2014 for the next one angry

A total lunar eclipse took place on December 10, 2011. It was the second of two total lunar eclipses in 2011, the first having occurred on June 15. A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon is positioned just right in its orbit to pass through Earth's shadow.

Asia, Australia, and other areas of the Pacific had the best visibility. European countries only saw a partial eclipse of a rising moon, while northwestern North America saw a partial eclipse of a setting moon.

The eclipse is seen over the Philippines despite of a cloudy and rainy weather over parts of Luzon and other areas. Photos are taken by groups of amateur astronomers from the Astronomical League of the Philippines (ALP).

South America and portions of West Africa missed the eclipse completely as it happens at morning.

Out of this world: The brilliant blood red 'impossible' lunar eclipse witnessed by millions of Americans this morning

By Daily Mail Reporter

Romantic doesn't cover it .


The Earth passed between the moon and the sun this morning, treating early risers to a cosmic, rusty-red lunar light spectacular.

This was the last chance to see the natural wonder of a total lunar eclipse in 2011.


And additionally it was a rare chance to see an 'impossible' eclipse, with the moon red and the rising sun in the sky simultaneously.

Unlike total solar eclipses total lunar eclipses are relatively common and happen on average every two years. This is because the moon is one-third smaller than Earth and so fits more easily into Earth’s umbral shadow.

Ringside seats were found in most parts of western America, Hawaii, northwestern Canada, Australia, New Zealand and central and eastern Asia.

Those in western North America had the best views well before dawn, and viewers could still catch the eclipse until as late as 6.05am PST.

Unfortunately, sunrise and moonset stopped those in the eastern U.S. from watching the eclipse.


The eclipse began at 4.45am PST when a red shadow started to cover the moon.

Then as the sun and moon aligned with the Earth slipped in between them, our planet cast a temporary shadow on the moon darkening it and making it appear a deep coppery red, as it blocked the suns rays.

The sunlight was still able to pass through Earth's atmosphere casting a mystical red glow on the moon.


The atmosphere filters out most of the blue light, leaving the red and orange hues that we see during a lunar eclipse.

This light is a projection of all the sunrises and sunsets happening on our planet at this time, combined into a halo around the planet.

The colour of the lunar eclipse gives us a report card on the health of the earth's atmosphere.When it is coppery red it means everything is normal. A black coloured eclipse happens when there is a lot of volcanic dust in the atmosphere.

As opposed to a partial eclipse, total eclipses entail a perfect alignment of the three bodies- moon, earth and sun.

Most places in the United States and Canada were able to observe an unusual effect.

This occurs when both the rising sun and the eclipsed moon can be seen at the same time.

This was the second total lunar eclipse this year, the first was in June. The next total lunar eclipse will not be until 2014.
