5. Moon will get to +26 degrees Lat tomorrow
7. I chose to watch the script about the lunar eclipse. It was so cool to see how it really works! Especially with the time sped up. I chose to watch this script because it has always fascinated me that the moon can turn red and I've wondered how it really happens. While I was watching the script I was wondering why you could see all the lines go across the moon before it was completely covered up by the earth. I think it has to do with the atmosphere of the earth and how the light interacts with our atmosphere. I'm excited to learn more about it.
