    Default Lots of activity in the night sky


    Venus has been really bright in the sky at dusk the past couple of weeks. Pretty neat lunar eclipse last night as well

    Saw the eclipse "starting" (~2:20AM), but all I saw was some dark shadows starting to move over the edge of the face of the Moon. Checked it again around 2:30AM and the shadows were a little more noticeable. I went to bed after realizing it would be another hour or two before any major coverage would appear.

    I saw it a 4:30 it was just past total eclipse. I had not seen that we were having a lunar eclipse. I was a little surprised when the full moon from last night was just a sliver this morning

    Not the greatest of photos. The phone in night mode lit the center up. The part in the center should be dark with light around the 7 or 8 o'clock position

    Yeah, I took a couple of pics, myself, (zoom & no zoom) and both pics look like the Sun with flares coming off in all directions.






    But these were taken when the eclipse first started and there was only a slight darkening of the lower right quadrant of the Moon, so I wasn't really expecting them to show much, anyway.

    The camera apps do some amazing things. That night mode is automatic. It does brighten the photo considerably
