    I watched it on TV. It was close to -40 with the windchill. Way too lazy to go outside and freeze myself to watch the moon turn orange.

      The sun can only be safely viewed through #16 welder's glass.

      I never heard of it, must not have been visible 'round here.

        So are those glasses really thick and way like a ton?

            I made a mistake, welder's glass is only numbered 1 - 14, 14 being the darkest, and the stuff you need to view the sun safely. They are not available in glasses as far as I know, but you can construct a little screen out of it. Get it from a welder's or building supply store, gonna cost you about 10-15 dollars, but don't be surprised if it's a special order.

              I've seen a Lunar Eclipse. A total Lunar Eclipse. It was seventh grade, and the moon went from white to yellow to orange to almost red. =0

              It was 11:04 when the moon was at the true point of eclipse. =)

                I saw it, but it wasn't anything special. Maybe I missed the part I was supposed to be looking for, but to me it was pretty uneventful.

                  I saw the first half of it, just before it was completely covered. Pretty sweet.

                      In Houston Texas area it was cloudy so you couldn't see it. Saw pictures of it and it looked sweet. Too bad I missed it =[

                        It was cloudy and rainy.

                        A radio station in Houston had a contest to see who could get the best picture of the eclipse. Some of those pics were funny. I'll see if I can find the link.

                          i watched it for about 10 minutes, wasnt a cloud in the sky where i lived, it was a nice view, after that i really wanna see a total solar eclipse that would be awesome.

                              The sky was clear, so I watched until the Earth was completely between the moon and sun... then I decided it was far too cold to stay out any longer and went back inside.

                                Figures that my camera batteries would die at that moment.
                                And that no one had spares.

                                I took a few pictures on my cellphone though.
