Lunar Eclipse
I just happened to be awake at 2:00 am last night so I went out on the back porch to check out the lunar eclipse. It was a big disappointment.

I remembered the eclipsed was occurring because it was so bright outside, for 2:00 am anyway. The moon appeared full. That was the extent of it. From what I had read, I was expecting it to be red or orange. During the eclipse, the earth was between the moon and sun, and all three were in the same plane. In this situation the moon was visible because light from the sun was 'bending' around the earth due to the atmosphere. No big deal from what I observed.
