Total lunar eclipse
If you are reading it minutes after I post, then don’t lose precious time – run outside and look at the Moon. Â Today you have a rare opportunity to observe total lunar eclipse. Â If you are, and you probably are, late, then consider the illustration below. Â Since I don’t possess all the necessary skill and equipment to make a photograph, I turned to my mad drawing skills.
Feel free to reuse the image as you wish, and please ignore all the scientific inconsistencies – I am not much of an artist and I had limited time.  After all, space bodies involved in this phenomena are moving fast.
Interestingly, even Google search is tracking the movement of the shadow.

Focus on the wrong issues
Here is a reminder I came across today that suggests that we often focus on the wrong issues. Â It came from “Why I love and hate having a smartphone” over at The Oat Meal.
