Partial Lunar Eclipse

While Synergy are (hopefully!) entertaining the blues fans inside Heathlands on Saturday, there will a partial lunar eclipse from 7.30 - 8.30pm. This isn't a particularly dramatic event: just a reddening of the south polar region of the Moon as it passes through the Earth's penumbra. Definitely worth a look if it's clear, especially since Jupiter and Uranus are close by. The full Moon will rise (in the East!) at around 5.00pm and the effect will be most noticeable at about 8 o'clock.
