Where and how to watch the lunar eclipse (the broadcast began)
Hope you have a good weather this morning. And it will continue until the next morning, so that you can watch the lunar eclipse with comfort. However, the weather map is not very agree with me.
In any case, it is worth considering whether to supplement (or replace) Friday libations with the observation of a lunar eclipse.
First of all, it is worth checking whether there will be an eclipse with you at all? Sample map:

More details are available on the timeanddate site. In the same place there is a smart animation of an eclipse and exact time of the beginning, the culmination and the end. Here is for Moscow:
For the European part of Russia, the eclipse will be seen quite comfortably in the evening.
If you are lucky, and the moon will be visible in the sky, at first you will notice nothing especially. The eclipse is a penumbral, so the disk of the moon will darken slowly and rather weakly.
At the same time, if you have prepared in advance, and you have at least binoculars, it will be more interesting to watch. The full moon is boring for observations in optics - everything is flat and too bright. But the subdued light of the Sun should make it more curious. Besides, you see, this is an interesting “achivka” - to look at the surface of the Moon when it is obscured by the Earth.
Your sky is completely covered with clouds. In this case, there is a webcast. This time the eclipse did not attract much attention, therefore, apart from the broadcast on the SLOOH website, announcements of other broadcasts cannot be found.
Did you find a good broadcast? Write in the comments, add.
UPD: In Ufa, the moon appeared in the clouds for a minute, ha! But the broadcast went on (the GT engine cuts the iframe, so only by reference)
