[Chaos-l] seeking memories of Feb. 20, 2008 total lunar eclipse

[Robert Nielsen]

Amy,

Last time I remember a total lunar eclipse, we were all setup at East Chapel Hill HS ... and we watched it from the home grandstand and on the track.   I think I might even have some pictures of it.  I know there were a few scopes there, some from Morehead as well.
