It is (was) visible to North/South America and some parts of Europe and Africa

Someday I wish to get a dslr, but for now this is the best I can do:

RE: Lunar Eclipse by Jesus on 02-21-2008 at 04:11 AM

Wouldn't of been able to see it all the way down here i think *-) looks sort of crappy in my opinion anyway and they happen quite a bit so yer.


RE: Lunar Eclipse by Chancer on 02-21-2008 at 08:34 PM

I was awake, but it was too cloudy, so I couldn't see it :(


RE: Lunar Eclipse by Nagamasa on 02-21-2008 at 09:15 PM

I saw the moon when it began coming into angle, but when it was "complete", I lost my moon :(

Here in Greece, it is just not completely white. I would say it seems to be cloudy

Didn't they say there wasn't going to be another one in like 7 years or something?

RE: Lunar Eclipse by Pr0xY on 02-25-2008 at 01:43 AM

It looked pretty neat from Northern Wisconsin, but I wasn't able to get a good picture of it with the camera I had available.
