Beautiful here in Alabama. The moon is nice and red/orange. Looks like a penny in the sky. My little 3 year old boy is yelling, "Hey, moon, come back!" at it. Just used a flashlight, and apple and and orange to demonstrate what's going on to my 7 year old daughter. O-->O-->0

Yes, at full elcipse when the Earth blocks the Sun's light and gravity from reaching the Moon, the Moon will fly off into deep space and become the comet Moon-Bop.
