One day, there might be some eclipse chasers on the moon looking for the best views of Earth in shadow. Until then, we'll just have to imagine the sight. Here's one from Moretus Crater near the south pole of the moon. Simulated with OpenSpace .

Thanks for putting the word out NYSDOT !

Some "potential space science headlines" from 1986. Nailed it on a few of them. Seemed overly optimistic on the weather related entries.

After today’s space show, run upstairs to this awesome physics colloquium at 4 pm! What an afternoon!
