And just to prove that Facebook is good for something, today I discovered that there will be a total eclipse of the moon later this month (the 20th, to be exact). Thank you, Nalo!

For me in England it is going to be a middle of the night job, so I might miss it, but if you happen to be in California the timing looks very good indeed, and east coast folks should be OK too as long as they are not having to go to bed early so they can be up at 4:00am for power breakfasts or whatever daft things people do in NY these days.

For more details, here’s NASA.
