Well, it looks more orange/brown to me. I just watched a bit of it on the NASA TV website. Watch the stream here while it lasts: www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/#publicI was hoping to watch it outside my house but the trees block my view. |

Yeah, same for me. Orangey brown. Nowhere near "blood red" as they said it would be. Although the sky for me appears to be very grey, nowhere near black. Not sure why. Maybe it's causing a lack of contrast. Too many lights in the area perhaps? Whereabouts are you and is your sky also grey?
EDIT: Nvm just saw you said trees were blocking your view. What, you can't move from your backyard?

I always knew the moon was a communist.

It was black when I was last outside, but I gave up during the eclipse part, the trees were blocking it so badly. I'm not saying specifically where I live, but it's in Yarra Ranges. |

I had a pretty good view of the red moon, despite the occasional thick cloud. About 11:15pm the moon was almost all gone, not red but black.
I live in North Queensland, btw.
