2010 Lunar Eclipse

Time-lapse sequence of the partial lunar eclipse of 26 June 2010. From southern California we did not see the entire event as the moon set shortly after the point of maximum eclipse. If you watch carefully, you can see the sky brighten, and the moon flatten and redden due to atmospheric refraction near moonset. Some stills of the eclipse as well as camera and other info can be found at: http://www.astrocamera.net/2010/0626/
