There will be a subtle eclipse of the moon this weekend . The event should be visible if there is no cloud cover at moon rise tonight here on the west coast.

A light shadow will be visible for two days as the penumbral event sees the moon pass through the earths shadow. There is comet activity as well this evening.

On this Day: February 10th 1870

The YMCA is founded.
