Psssstttt... are you still awake?? All you insomniacs and uber-early risers are in for special moon effects early-early this morning.
Take a peek out the window around 5 - 6:20am today (Tuesday) and watch as the moon passes through the Earth's shadow and turns a lovely copper-red. Grab those binoculars and a Super Sized coffee as you won't be getting mooned like this again until 2011. We heart lunar eclipses (and our snooze button).

Did anyone catch this? I was fast asleep.
I missed it too. It's against my religion to be up so early. I did, however, dream about pink clouds -- related??
I actually saw some of it... my geriatric dog needed to go out around 5:30 AM so I took the opportunity to look for a minute or so before heading back to bed...
It took a few minutes for the fog to penetrate my brain that I was actually up at the prescribed time, but thanks to you Katie I got to see it.
