Default Lunar Eclipse, 28 August 2007

This morning at approx. 0450 EDT the Moon started to go into a total lunar eclipse. This time around, I was able to watch it (got clouded out last time), and I managed to get a few pictures.

Here's the moon at totality:



I know, astronomy magazines and the news are sure to have better ones, but this is mine!

Hope you all enjoy the sight!

Very cool.

Some friends of mine told me that while the moon was entering partial eclipse, a meteor passed in front of it - anyone see it?

I got up and tried to look at it, but it was too close to the horizon and was blocked by hills and trees

I was able to view the eclipse, but not get any pictures. Excellent!

One of the crazy boys working with us said that he saw two moons - perhaps he saw the meteor!

I didn't even know there was an eclipse. I woke up so many times last night I could have peeked through the window!

I saw the eclipse too. I've never seen anything like it. I can understand why pre-astronomy civilizations might be a little freaked out by it. It was quite impressive.
