Winter Solstice+Lunar Eclipse on Tuesday December 21, 2010

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/ct-met-lunar-eclipse-20101219,0,7272254.story


"on the longest night of the year, a full moon will disappear at 1:40 a.m. behind the Earth's shadow. There won't be another total lunar eclipse on the night of the winter solstice for 84 years.

Weather permitting — and the forecast isn't favorable in the Chicago area, calling for clouds building Monday and snow overnight — the eclipse will be visible everywhere in the continental United States, and at its darkest, the moon will be halfway up from the horizon in the south-southwest sky."
