Living in a suburb of Detroit, I can tell you right now there won't be any eclipse-viewing tonight.

Hmm, it should be at its peak in my area, but I can't see jack...

Stupid fucking cloud cover. I could see it for a minute when it was about 90% covered, but that’s been it. Well, the next ones in November.

I just saw it go dark about 30 minutes ago.

Well, somthing's EATING THE MOON!

*lights incense and prays most devoutly*

I offer the sacrifice of my penis to the Moon eating demons!

*mashes penis off with a spoon*

Well, good thing it worked, the Moon is emerging out of the demon's mouth!
Ahhh, the power of prayer. And penile sacrifice!

I see it now, the light is starting to shine on the moon again... Looks quite nice

Stupid San Franciscan clouds. I really wanted to see it. Any chance one of you guys caught it on tape?

Sat outside and watched it. Didn't watch it go back down though.

normally the moon is so bright it looks like a flat disc, but just before the penumbra covered the last bit of pure light it looked VERY spherical and metallic. I was expecting to see a green beam lance out towards earth, or to hear someone say "Commence primary ignition."

Damn, did I miss it? I can see the moon quite well from my south-side window, but ti looks the same as usual. Dammit.

Started watching this from the porch roof, but the fog from the toreential rain we'd had earlier rose and blocked the view just as the PenUmbra had covered half of the moon. Never cleared, either. Dammit.

TrailerParkJawa · Post by **TrailerParkJawa** » 2003-05-16 11:28am

I fell asleep early. Like 5 minutes after I posted I was going to go outside as soon as it got dark.

Oh well. I think it was getting kinda cloudy anyway, so maybe I didnt miss anything.

Knife · Post by **Knife** » 2003-05-16 12:36pm

Twas neat. Haven't seen one for quite a long time, so I made a point to go outside on break and check it out.

Heh. It was cloudless here, and I had my old telescope out on the roof of my apartment building looking at it. Gorgeous.

Did anyone else notice a small line of light sticking out of each side, near the top?
