Supermoon Eclipse!

[kdsorceress.livejournal.com]

So, on Sunday evening, there is going to be a SUPERMOON ECLIPSE! In addition to being my new band name, that sounds like the sort of awesome thing I want to see.

I am bike-enabled, but probably won't have access to a car. Does anyone know of a particularly good eclipse-viewing spot in the greater Davis/Somerville/Cambridge/Arlington/Etc area? Does anyone know of any eclipse parties happening, or publicly-available telescopes?

Thanks!

MIT open observing will be out near the Dot of grass in front of the green building with a telescope.

Seriously.

Harvard-Smithsonian observatory in Cambridge should have a public event for this. Edit: Yes, here it is, starting at 9:30 pm.

I like watching these from the hilltop in Danehy Park.

Some folks I know are getting together. I asked if I could invite you, and was told you would be added to the group where the event was posted. Did this happen?

assuming the clouds hold out...

It seems like it'll be pretty nicely high in the sky and easily visible. At the peak, about 40° above the horizon and to the south east. Make sure there's nothing blocking you in that direction and you should get a nice view. At least, if the clouds cooperate.
