This Friday night, we will have an hours-long near-total eclipse of the moon. It will be almost six hundred years until the next eclipse of such a duration. It should be visible throughout most of North America, weather conditions permitting.

Don't look directly at it!

(I remember hearing this joke before the August 16, 1989 lunar eclipse.)
