    It was given out on the TV last night that there is going to be a full Lunar Eclipse of the moon tonight March 3rd 2007.
    If you click on this link www.skytonight.com it should tell you all about it.Knowing our luck as usual it will be cloudy [​IMG]

    It looks as though we should have a chance of seeing the full eclipse sometime between 10.45 and midnight.

    Good watching.
