Re: [Phys-l] total lunar eclipse Tuesday

[Barbara Bay <b2bay@yahoo.com>]

Hi,  Here are some more websites concerning the impending lunar eclipse including some very nice pictures (suitable for k-12 students):
  http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2007/03aug_dreamyeclipse.htm?list946821 
  http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/eclipse.html

  http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2007/12feb_lunareclipse.htm 
  http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2007/27aug_explodingeclipse.htm?list946821 
These are from my reference page from the PowerPoint presentation I made for my HS students to inform them of the impending lunar eclipse. Need to take advantage of every "teachable moment", even today, their first day of school.
Sorry, I don't have time to discuss each website, like John Denker did. I am off to school. Barbara Bay
