Report "Lunar eclipse"

Hello!! I see the link that you posted and I want to comment about the pdcast that refered about the lunar eclipse that ocurred on februry 20 of this year. Personally an other topic that I like is space phenomenas (I search the word "fenómenos" in a dictionary and I found it like this, but I don´t know if it is the correct word). Well the lunar eclipse is a phenomen that ocurre a few times for each time of years. In this case for the firts 10 years of the milenium we have 2 lunar eclipse, this one and the other on 2010. I was in my house when the lunar eclipse began, rarely the sky didn´t have any clouds. It was a perfect moment to apreciatte this moment. I took some photographs with my cellphone (but it doesn´t look well) and I saw it with the binoculars of my parents. I saw 3 hours of the eclipse, I didn´t see the begining and the final time for the eclipse, but it was interesting because I passed a good moment with my family. And now, to wait the next eclipse.

Get ready for a total eclipse of the Moon on Feb. 20. Eclipses of the Moon only happen when the full Moon passes through the shadow cast by our planet. This eclipse is visible for most of North America, all of South America, western Europe and western Africa.February 14, 2008

Here is my comment, sorry for the time, this time the comment is about a interview to a participant of a ship tournament, but it wasn´t a simple tournament of ships that we know. This ships were robots that compete for a winner. The interviewed was talking about the funtions and how can the ships handle without getting lost oh the way. I think that this type of tournaments or contest are very interesting because his porpose is to demostrate, compare and see the best inventions, all with a good work of engineering, and I could say that is wonderful to see how the ship doesn´t descompose if it touches the water.
