Space Weather News for Oct. 15, 2005
http://spaceweather.com
According to folklore, October's full moon is called the "Hunter's Moon" or
sometimes the "Blood Moon." It gets its name from hunters who tracked and
killed their prey by autumn moonlight, stockpiling food for the winter
ahead. The Hunter's Moon of 2005 is due on Oct. 17th.
If you live on the Pacific side of Earth (California to Alaska, Hawaii,
Japan and Australia), you can see a partial eclipse of the Hunter's Moon.
The best time to look is Monday morning at 5:00 a.m. PDT (Oct. 17, 1200 UT)
when the edge of the Moon dips into the darkest part of Earth's shadow. Only
a little bit of the Moon will be shaded. A casual observer might not even
notice the eclipse; but if you know what to look for, you'll definitely see
it.
