petepan - It was and is time constraint.<br /><br />Plus, I almost forgot the ecclipse and so my ulterior motive was to remind all of you.<br /><br />USA is in North America, BTW.<br /><br />BBrock- thank you. Central Standard time is 1 hour earlier than Eastern Standard time.<br /><br />That would be pretty soon after evening twilight!<br /><br />BTW- when do we change our clocks?

OK, 8:14 PM Central Standard time it begins, with the first sliver of the moon removed (not literally) by the earth's shadow.<br /><br />Totality begins 9:18 PM and continues to 10:52 PM, etc.<br /><br />Thank you, BBrodk!<br /><br />Anyone want to post an image? <br /><br />BTW- make sure you adjust for your specific time zone.

I hate to resurrect a long dead thread, but have noticed many lurkers looking here, so....<br /><br />For information about tonight's (Mar 3-4 2007) Total lunar eclipse, see the "Lunar Eclipse has started" thread in Ask the Astronomer. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.
