I saw my first lunar eclipse yesterday! It was amazing! The stars were all out yesterday and I saw shooting stars! It was so much quieter than the solar eclipse I went to see with my Dad.
Its supposed to be going on 20-21 of January, and its a Blood Wolf Moon Lunar Eclipse in Leo.
Did anyone else see it or is anyone else going to be on the look-out for it?

I spent some time looking at the enormous moon but missed the actual eclipse.

Oh, I haven't even known there was a lunar eclipse... I obviously haven't seen it. Though I've checked and it was actually visible where I live, but it was Monday's morning. At that time I was busy getting ready for work... So maybe some other time.
However, I've seen some lunar eclipses in the past. It always looks nice, even if it's just a partial eclipse.

It is funny, how the lunar eclipses are so dramatic even when it's just a partial eclipse, but for a solar eclipse, if it's not a total eclipse it's hard to even notice that one is happening at all.

I saw the beautiful moon, but I missed the actual eclipse.
I was like "Let's remember to look for it!" then completely forgot and went to bed.
The moon yesterday was beautiful too.
I've always had a lot of love for the moon.
I actually used to howl at it too 8D
I have seen one lunar eclipse in my life.
When I was a kid, we heard about one and my parents and I stayed up late just to see it
It was pretty awesome.
I used to stare at the moon and stars when I'd go outside.
The stars eventually disappeared and I couldn't understand why.
I know why now - my eyesight is so bad that I can't see stars.
But I can always see the moon 8>

I live in the city, so there are hardly any stars visible at all - the air is polluted and the city lights are so bright that the night sky seems pitch-black, if there aren't any clouds. But you're right, moon is always visible
I think I've seen a lunar eclipse once when I was returning home. It wasn't really so late, but it was already dark and the eclipse had already started some time ago. Also, I think I forgot there was supposed to be eclipse at that time... So I was simply lucky

That's what I thought it was. I live in town, not a huge city, but people said that makes stars hard to see.
But I got new glasses and I see them all again 8U
I really wish I had a way to take good photos of the moon.
All you see is just a tiny bright glowing circle >Bu

I got to see it and i was so excited. We were having a cloudy night so we worried it would be hidden.
Also for some reason my brain malfunctioned when i saw the title and i though “ what the hell did I do to warrent a chat topic!”
