Total Lunar Eclipse 2011

A total lunar eclipse occurred 15 June 2011. I've read it was in full view in eastern Africa. Presumably our village would have been an ideal vantage point, as there is no light pollution. But alas, we missed it because at the moment we are in southern California visiting family. Oh well, maybe next time!

Here's a link to more information and pictures about the eclipse:
