Here are recordings of seven webcasts of last night's total #LunarEclipse that actually worked (with the time stamp of totality beginning):
youtube.com/watch?v=XQLcLAfilkQ from 2:31
youtube.com/watch?v=TywJ47LZ-Ic from 1:53
youtube.com/watch?v=IdASZ4AGXeY from 8:00
youtube.com/watch?v=rQuzWYn2WJw from 2:35
youtube.com/watch?v=JeOlqcK5Edg from 2:27
youtube.com/watch?v=s2-_LYVuIEE from 0:47
youtube.com/watch?v=JGxr_kinPmk from 5:53
Many suffered from clouds - as did even Mauna Kea where a sensitive wide angle camera was eventually able to capture the sky around the dark Moon, however:

This one from an all-sky camera in Alaska features a lot of aurora, better to see during totality:

Only a few regions on our planet - just west and east and especially inside of the dark zone in this NASA map which is mostly the Pacific Ocean - will have a good view of the full totality from 11:04 to 12:03 UTC of the #LunarEclipse today, but there will be webcasts galore to try out:
