Total Lunar Eclipse Viewing Events

In addition to the two other locations listed, here are some gatherings for watching the lunar eclipse:

• Hough Park, San Jose (SJ Astronomical Assoc)
• Park Chalet Gardens near Ocean Beach, San Francisco (SF Amateur Astronomers)
• Foothill College Observatory, Los Altos Hills
• Robert Gerguson Observatory, 2605 Adobe Canyon Rd., Kenwood (Sonoma County Astronomical Society)

But you don't need a telescope to see the eclipse.  Anywhere with a clear sky and a view of the moon will work.  Binoculars will help.  The eclipse starts at 10:58, with totality running from 12:07 AM to 1:25 AM Tuesday morning.  The moon will leave the earth's shadow at 2:33 AM.
