Supermoon plus eclipse equals rare sky show Sunday night
The article states "West Asia" as the closest for us. No idea if any of it will be visible from here? Pete
"....A total lunar eclipse will share the stage with a so-called supermoon Sunday night or early Monday, depending where you are. That combination hasn't been seen since 1982 and won't happen again until 2033....."

Some impressive pics (36 in total) on MSN which includes pics from Dover and Glastonbury in the UK. Well worth a look:

^ some nice photo's - pity I didn't get to see any of it..... trying to work out if I got the times totally wrong (wouldn't be a surprise), seems I had things right. Just didn't see anything particularly different in the skies....

Went out and saw the moon, it was quite small. Looked more dirty than red, but here in So California the air is brown from pollution so that may have caused it.

My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?
