and if the moon turns red tonight the Blazers will defeat the Rockets in the playoffs. (Go outside, it's pretty cool. The eclipse has started. )
It's not supposed to actually be red until around 1206 pdx time. What you are seeing now is the start of the eclipse. It won't be red until the moon is fully eclipsed.
Exactly what I was thinking. I was debating taking a drive over to the oregon city viewing point off of 205 to try and get a good shot. But my phone wouldn't do it justice. If anyone gets a good pic of it I'd love to see!
Nicolas Batum @nicolas88batum for those who watching the eclipse from portland, do you what are the 2 lights next to the moon (1 is kind of red)? those are stars or nah?
Mars. Virgo is right next to it. Download the Google Sky Map app, hold it up to the sky and it will tell you the name of all the stars, planets and satellites.
Sly could you imagine how messed up it would be if the moon didn't actually turn red now that you made this thread. Astronomers would be searching for answers, but we'd have it right here. Moon jinx incoming.
This is cool! Better hurry up though...... http://new.livestream.com/GriffithObservatoryTV/LunarEclipse
The moon. Just transformed. INTO MOTHERFUCKING GRIMLOCK. [video=youtube;6R1m9fjdwjI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6R1m9fjdwjI[/video]
