This is not the real thing if you guys would have the time to think instead of cursing at this user I'm sure he wouldn't be able to have time for fly into space take a satellite picture of it and yes this was made on the computer if you people can recognize the 3-d structure of it.

I saw it yesterday and the shadow area started from bottom left. This is NOT lunar eclipse recorded from yesterday.

[namblog]

I didn't record it, I made it with Starry Night.

Also the point where the shadow contacts the Moon's face is determined by your latitude on the Earth and is not the and for all observers.

The Moon is about 31 1/2 Earths away yet it is almost a fourth he size of the Earth. The Moon is a truly beautiful creation of God.
