I don't think it was visible in our sky, but I didn't look for it, so I could be wrong. They were saying it was only gonna be visible to some for a quick time. It may not have happened yet though... hmm, maybe I'll get up early tonight and look for it...

I believe the next one is February of next year. Perhaps a little googling might help that...

EDIT
Click here for a listing of all the lunar eclipses. The next one will be on February 28th, 2008 for me.


Also yes, it was cool.

In Australia, the news said the next one is in 2011, but that's over here.

The lunar eclipe started at 8:37 PM, and was over at about 9:30 PM I think, but I saw it around 9:10.
