2022 Lunar Eclipse

[Deleted member 46223]

Anyone going to try and watch the lunar eclipse tomorrow morning? If I manage to wake up, I'll try and take a look. Hopefully I'm not so tired that I clumsily drop my telescope right off the mount and it smashes.

What kind of scope do you have ?

It's a beautifully clear sky tonight with a bright clear moon. Last night too, I sat outside for a bit with a cheapishly decent pair of binoculars and looked at it for a while. Amazing how much detail you can see even with such a moderate device as I was using.
But the short if it is, I don't have a telescope, but I'll go out and see what I can.

If you can take pics with your telescope, I'd love to see them!

I have an Orion 90mm refractor, can get some really nice views of the moon with it. Unfortunately, I don't have any tracking equipment or camera adapters, so I don't have the ability to take pictures through the scope.
