Celestia Forums

Hi,

I read everywhere that this eclipse will be total. But when displaying it in celestia, not all the moon surface disappears ...
I do a mistake ?

Thank you

i have also noticed that bug(?)

i think it's an issue of haziness of earth's actual shadow and celestia rendering the shadow as a rigid circle. if you dload MB's lunar eclipse patch, you'll see how the shadow is just hazy enough to engulf the whole moon, and thus cause a total eclipse.
