Go outside, should be lunar eclipse from 1 to 2
It will be as dark as it gets.
While eclipse itself is not extraordinary, today is autumnal equanox and that only happens once every 300 some years (combination of two)
While the stars are covered tonight, the moon is visible, so this only means it will be even darker since stars won’t provide any light, unfortunately it would have been a cool opportunity to see even more stars then usual.
Have fun!

A total lunar eclipse overlaps with 2010′s winter solstice tonight. This is the first time an eclipse has coincided with a solstice since December 21, 1638, and the next one won’t come around again until 2094.
The upcoming extravaganza in the sky tonight doesn’t end there, however, as the Ursids meteor shower will also be taking place. [CityStateTime.com](http://CityStateTime.com) reports that this particular annual show is rarely witnessed compared to its brighter counterparts, but stargazers will have an especially exceptional chance to view the display this year because of the eclipse’s darkened sky.

I read it starts around 1:30 and is fully eclipsed by 2:40, and should last until sunrise.
