Lunar Eclipse December 20, 2010
The above eclipse sequence was shot last night in Tucson between 11:20 pm and 12:50 am. Each image is a single shot: the first four with an exposure time of 0.01 sec. and the last with 6 sec. Unfortunately there were clouds and the moon was slipping in and out of the cloud cover. The first image was taken just prior to the Moon entering the Earth's shadow; in the last image the Moon is fully within the shadow. It wasn't a perfect night for imaging but the progression of the eclipse is clear.
