Saturday 12/10 in the early morning hours there will be a total eclipse of the moon,known also as Full Long Night Moon,or Full Cold Night Moon by the Native Americans who named the full moons for all the months. This will be the second lunar eclipse this year,the first was on June 15. It will be visible from all of Asia and Australia,seen as rising over Eastern Europe and setting over the northwest of North America. In Pacific Standard Time totality begins at 6:06 a.m. and ends at 6:57a.m. If the sky is clear like it was this morning I should be able to see it,but the moon was only out briefly after 6 this morning before either clouds or fog obscured it. Don't be to upset if you miss it as there are several sites offering web cast of the event.
