Total Lunar Eclipse - December 21, 2010 (Michigan)

****Notice that the moon never really went completely dark on the right side(top). The right side(top) of the moon appeared to be continously lit even when the full eclipse occurred. Could this be another light source possibly??? Light from Nibiru (Planet X)?

Source of light after (full eclipse)??

HD video taken outside my home in S.E. Michigan on Dec 21st between 2-4am...

A rare event... At around 1:33 A.M. E.S.T. on Tuesday, the Moon will begin to move into the earth's shadow, at which point stargazers have some three and a half hours to witness the gradual darkening of the moon's surface.

From 2:41 to 3:53 A.M, the moon will be completely immersed in the earth's shadow. It's the first time in over 450 years that the lunar eclipse will occur on the same day as the winter solstice. A spectacular sky show like this won't be visible until the next total lunar eclipse on April 5, 2014.

After the eclipse, the sun will rise around 7 A.M. and set at 4:30 P.M., making Tuesday Dec. 21st the shortest day (and longest night) of the year. At 6:38 P.M., when the sun's rays reach the farthest point south of the equator, the winter solstice takes place. If you were standing at the Tropic of Capricorn at 23.5 degrees south latitude at noon on Tuesday, the sun would be directly overhead. ("Solstice" comes from the Latin meaning "sun standing still.")

Although the sun is moving closer north, Dec. 21st marks the beginning of cold winter days.

Alhamdulillahi!! :)

A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth casts its shadow on the full moon, blocking the sun's rays that otherwise reflect off the moon's surface. Some indirect sunlight still pierces through to give the moon its eerie hue --- the source of the light :)

@feelinirie88 - Yes, my dear child:) Now, move along, there's nothing to see here.

@adamb20102010 - Thank you and Happy Holidays! :)

@247mmg - I think the Earth has tilted, and the Moon is going along for the ride. The polar shift is occuring as we speak. I hope there isn't an abrupt pole shift, as I would say would cause major worldwide catastrophes. But you can see the pole shift is causing the polar caps to melt since the poles are now more pointed to the Sun. The jet streams have changed all over the world. California is now getting slammed with a new jet stream, and the UK and most of Europe is getting slammed with snow.

Thumbs up if you just skipped almost to the end.;)

If you had a more sensitive camera, you would see that the whole moon is faintly lit up by a reddish glow during lunar eclipses, this is the lensing effect of the earth's atmosphere bending light like a prism. Is jumping to conclusions the only exercise you get??

YES EVEN THOUGH WE ARE MILLIONS OF MILES AWAY FROM IT THE SUN IS STILL 100 TIMES THE SIZE OF EARTH SO ITS JUST THE SUN CASTING LIGHT AROUND OUR PLANET AND LIGHTING THE MOON
