I would like to thank the solar system for arranging for me to see a full lunar eclipse on my 50th birthday (albeit only because I am now on the west coast rather than in Fargo).
Happy Birthday. Hope you were able to see it better than we could(n’t) down here.
A bit hazy at first, and invisible after about halfway to totality. Still a nice birthday treat.
🙂
