Default Total eclipse of the moon, Wednesday night.

A total eclipse of the Moon occurs during the night of Wednesday,
February 20/21, 2008.

The entire event is visible from South America and most of North
America (on Feb. 20)
Western Europe, Africa, and western Asia (on Feb. 21).

During a total lunar eclipse, the Moon's disk can take on a
dramatically colorful appearance from bright orange to blood red to
dark brown and (rarely) very dark gray.

This should be interesting in Britain, given the present weather
phenomenon. Cameras ready, silver plaight.
