Robinson and I stayed up late to see the lunar eclipse. This is the first lunar eclipse on the winter solstice in about 300 years and the next one won't be for another 372 years.We joked about what people in 1638 thought about the eclipse, whether or not they were terrified (as is the stereotype) or if they were fascinated (as I'm more inclined to believe). Some cultures knew a lot more than the Western world did about the heavens.
Robinson was quite the shutterbug. He created this montage, picking among the hundreds of photographs that he took.
Blessed be.
