Celestia Forums

The cloudy snowy skies here cleared up just long enough to allow me to watch the lunar eclipse... somewhat rust-colored at that. I tried to take a few pictures (digital camera), which I've posted below...


Full-frame (gimp: rescaled 450x338, gamma +1.5)

Did anyone else get a chance to watch it?

Yep, just loaded up Celestia, and zoomed in on the moon, and there is was

I also watched it. If it wasn't so cold out I might have watched it more, but I was only able to run outside every 15 minutes or so to take a look. It's always fun to see.

Surprise Surprise... I got clouded over. Just like last eclipse, and comet Holmes.

One of the community members from another forum I belong to took this picture... a really beautiful shot.
