lunar eclipse : we love the moon!

The space race was an impor­tant influ­ence in my youth. My fam­ily was glued to the news about astro­nauts, cos­mo­nauts, and pro­posed mis­sions. I can remem­ber watch­ing the land­ing on the moon. I love space, the cos­mos, cos­mol­ogy, and heav­enly bodies.

Last night it was the last lunar eclipse until 2010. It was freez­ing cold. I luck­ily sat in my loft look­ing up at it through the sky­light. I watched as the planet on which I reside placed itself between the sun and the moon. The shadow being cast to block our moon.

Too cool.
