Question by Rain Dancer: How do I know what time the Lunar Eclipse will take place?
Tonight is the lunar eclipse and I would like to see it, but I cant find anything that will give me a time to shoot for. Thanks to anyone who can help!

Answer by Dr BobThere will be nothing to see. It's such a minor penumbral eclipse that the moon will simply look like an ordinary full moon.
Here are the times:
7:04:17 PM EDT eclipse begins
8:39:10 PM EDT maximum eclipse
10:14:09 PM EDT eclipse ends
The moon will be up for much of the eclipse on the east coast of the US; on the west coast, however, the moon will be below the horizon during the eclipse.
If you had precise measuring equipment, you might be able to detect a slight gradation of brightness, but you won't see anything with your naked eye.
Here's the NASA information for this eclipse:

All in all, this eclipse isn't too special, but it isn't too lame either. While penumbral eclipses are harder to see than partial ones due to the less intense shadow cast on them, they still can be seen if, as in this one, the moon moves deep enough into the penumbra. However, even then, the only visible changes in the moon's brightness is that one side will appear slightly darker than the other one, and you will likely need to look for this to notice anything unusual. Still, if you have free time on the day this eclipse will happen on, I would advise you look for it when it's near its peak. An eclipse is an eclipse, no matter how intense it is. Also make sure to Check your calendars and local news to get more info on what calendar day this eclipse will occur on. THis is because the date this and every other eclipse is said to occur on relates to what time it is at the prime meridian while the eclipse happens, which means that the actual date of the eclipse where you live could be one day before or after the given date, and this can seriously screw up your plans if you want to see the eclipse.

Answer by C7SYes you can. It will cost $ 4000-$ 5000 parts and labor and add maybe 80-100HP assuming you also have the cold air intake and exhaust system to back it up. .
