Uhmmm.....
The last total lunar eclipse visible from North America was on Feb. 21, 2008. The next one is due on April 15, 2014. I don't know for sure where the 372 years came from... but this is from a news article in Edmonton http://www.edmontonsun.com/news/cana.../16466551.html

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

It's a lunar eclipse that is coinciding with winter solstice (shortest day/longest night) and that's the source of the 400-year-rarity of the event.
On another note, this means as of tomorrow that daylight starts getting longer. Of course we still have many many months yet of winter but hey it's something

I checked at least 3 times last night during the time period but it was clouded over my house everytime I went out. Bummer. Oh well, have at least seen some nice pictures of it, Tim, yours is awesome, thanks for sharing.
