The Mill of Kintail will be a great place to organize a lunar eclipse event. A dark site makes a lunar ellipse much more impressive. As your moon shadow gets...

Personally (and just personally) I'd rather show it to 250 people at Chapters than 10 at MoK - even though MoK would be a far better view. There is so little...
