Lunar Eclipse

The last total lunar eclipse until 2010 occurred last night, with cameo appearances by Saturn and the bright star Regulus on either side of the veiled full moon.

Supposedly, if you had a telescope you could even see Saturn's rings. Unfortunately I didn't so I missed out on that, but that didn't mean the night was a total loss...

Great pics! I wasn't able to see the little martian guy though... too cold to stand outside for any length of time. Maybe I should have had some wine before I went out?

I had a glass of wine, but it didn't help me, either! I missed Marvin!

:P

Great pics!! I'll share hubby's pics in a day or two when I can find the time...
