Just thought I'd remind those of you who have a chance to see it.

frostie · 21 February 2008, 01:50 PM

It doesn't look that interesting from this part of the world

Thanks a lot for reminding me

Chozn1 · 21 February 2008, 01:52 PM

I was just outside with my telescope and Saturn's rings are very visible right now due to the glare of the moon being temporarily nixed. Really cool

volvo · 21 February 2008, 02:06 PM

Thanks and it's amazing!!

BuffaloRolex · 21 February 2008, 02:10 PM

Thanks! Just went out and took a look. Amazing.

And I had completely forgotten...

diversified · 21 February 2008, 02:18 PM

Went out to see the eclipse, watched for 10 seconds, went inside. "It's 8 degrees here".

buz-lh · 21 February 2008, 01:51 PM

Yeah, and it's overcast here.

Letsgodiving · 21 February 2008, 01:51 PM

Thanks for the reminder. I just went outside and unfortunately it is cloudy here.

And you can see Saturn and the star Regulus (constellation of Leo). Very cool (10.4 °F / -12.0 °C) out.

nsolga · 21 February 2008, 02:20 PM

Sorry for the shaky shots guys.... I'm cold. It's not 10 but, 30F is cold enough for me.

Haroldglen · 21 February 2008, 02:48 PM

It was an amazing sight tonight from the Buckeye state, Ohio.

Subfiend · 21 February 2008, 02:49 PM

I caught the whole thing in a clear sky, after a nice snowfall today. Amazing.

roadcarver · 21 February 2008, 03:08 PM

I took this shot around 10:30pm EST.

DSJ · 21 February 2008, 03:11 PM

Just watched it during my drive from Madison to Milwaukee. One of the few times I enjoy having a glass moonroof (hey, I'm using it for its namesake!) Crystal clear and -1F out here makes for good viewing!

Launch Mini · 21 February 2008, 03:40 PM

Was cloudy all day, then just about 20 minutes before full eclipse, the clouds left for a great show.
Then yesterday we had a meteorite show, crashed just south east of here.
Then last night I saw another, but it wasn't as spectacular as the one in the morning

I missed the eclipse - but my brother made it outside to try and get some shots just because of how bright the moon was - I thought this one came out nicely.

frostie · 21 February 2008, 09:45 PM

Nice pics people

Earl · 21 February 2008, 11:03 PM

awsome pictures all :o)

Dan Pierce · 22 February 2008, 12:08 AM

We had a clear sky last night here in Kentucky.

Used high powered binoculars w/ a tripod to watch the eclipse. Very cool.
