This event, which is called a Lunar Eclipse, should be visible to a large part of the world's population*.
In fact, for many of us on the Check-In List tonight, we should see a TOTAL Lunar Eclipse -- during which the full moon will turn a bright orange-red.
So, how much do you know about Lunar Eclipses?
Please give us your best answers for each of the following 3 TRUE or FALSE questions, by using the (reuseable) answers of "A"=TRUE or "B"=FALSE.
Question #1: The term Blood Moon can be and is usually applied to any and all Total Lunar Eclipses, because the dispersed light from all the Earth’s sunrises and sunsets falls on the face of the moon at mid-eclipse -- True or False?
A. True, or
B. False.
Question #2: A Total Lunar Eclipse occurs when the Moon moves between the Sun and the Earth -- True or False?
A. True, or
B. False.
Question #3: The Total Lunar Eclipse of April 14-15, 2014 is the first one in the 2014-2015 lunar tetrad** (i.e., four consecutive total lunar eclipses, spaced at six lunar months apart from one another) -- True or False?
A. True, or
B. False.

*Continents seeing at least some parts of the eclipse: West in Europe, Parts of Asia, Much of Australia, Much of Africa, Much of North America, Much of South America, Pacific, Atlantic, Indian Ocean, Antarctica
=================
++ QUOTE(s) OF THE DAY ++ -- from Capris (peaked at Billboard position # 3 in 1961)
“There's a (moon out tonight) whoa-oh-oh ooh
Let's go strollin'
There's a (girl in my heart) whoa-oh-oh ooh
Whose heart I've stolen
There's a moon out tonight (whoa-oh-oh ooh)
Let's go strollin' through the park (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)”
[SOURCE: The Capris' There's A Moon Out Tonight]
++ And Did You Know...? (with a wave to Big Al) ++
Often, LW will try to find a song to use as the ++ Quote of the Day ++ that is somehow related to the current Net's topic.
For tonight's Net, two songs immediately came to mind:
The Capris' There's A Moon Out Tonight and Van Morrison's Moondance.
Obviously, The Capris song was used for the Quote.
However, you may see Moondance lyrics again around the next Total Lunar Eclipse (October 8, 2014).
Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
[Chorus:]
Can I just have one a' more Moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love
[SOURCE: Van Morrison's Moondance]With the stars up above in your eyes

Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love
