This Tuesday, December 21, at 12:47 PM, EST
is the Winter Solstice,
and a Lunar Eclipse that begins at 2:41 to 3:53 AM, EST.
The last time they happened together was 456 years ago.
Us and the lucky residents of 1564!
It was a busy year,
Galileo was born and Shakespeare baptized,
and that same year
Michelangelo died.

Thanks for the mini history lesson! Made a note of the date and time, but usually have no luck with, "wonders in the sky". But I love going to the roof and looking at the sky, so I'll give it a shot.
We're looking forward to the event here at the beach. Starts at 12:30 AM, ends at 4:10 AM. Planning on a nice long nap this afternoon!
