"[WESH.com](http://WESH.com) updated 1:34 p.m. ET, Wed., Feb. 20, 2008 The total eclipse will be viewable from 10:01 p.m. to 10:51 p.m., according to NASA’s Web site. A partial eclipse will be viewable from 8:43 p.m. to 12:09 a.m. A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon’s path enters into the shadow of the Earth. A partial eclipse occurs when some of the sun’s light is blocked by the Earth, and a total eclipse occurs when all of the sun’s light is blocked by the Earth. The eclipse will be viewable in South America, the Eastern half of North America and large portions of western Africa, Europe, and Asia." ---

> [@SkunkApe](#): > > guess this guy took these pics with a normal Camera…and just zoomed in. You can see Saturn. Pretty cool Somehow doubt it. a) Saturn was hard to see through a really good telescope at Harvard b) the ring certainly wouldn’t show up or be as bright as the planet c) I think he must have been taking pictures of a car.
