grobi<p>A Total Lunar Eclipse Over Uruguay<br>Video Credit &amp; Copyright: Mauricio Salazar<br><a href="https://www.instagram.com/astropolo_/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">instagram.com/astropolo_/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>Explanation: <br>If the full Moon suddenly faded, what would you see? The answer was recorded in a dramatic time lapse video taken during the total lunar eclipse last week from Uruguay. During a total lunar eclipse, the Earth moves between the Moon and the Sun, causing the Moon to fade dramatically. The Moon never gets completely dark, though, since the Earth's atmosphere refracts some light. As the featured video begins, the scene may appear to be daytime and sunlit, but actually it is nighttime and lit by the glow of the full Moon. As the Moon becomes eclipsed and fades, background stars become visible. Most spectacularly, the sky surrounding the eclipsed moon suddenly appears to be full of stars and highlighted by the busy plane of our Milky Way Galaxy. Nearly two hours after the eclipse started, the Moon emerged from the Earth's shadow and its bright full glare again dominated the sky. <br><a href="https://science.nasa.gov/moon/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">science.nasa.gov/moon/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_eclipse#Total_lunar_eclipse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_ec</span><span class="invisible">lipse#Total_lunar_eclipse</span></a><br><a href="https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap250315.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap250315.ht</span><span class="invisible">ml</span></a><br><a href="https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap211201.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap211201.ht</span><span class="invisible">ml</span></a><br><a href="https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap110617.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap110617.ht</span><span class="invisible">ml</span></a></p><p><a href="https://science.nasa.gov/sun/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">science.nasa.gov/sun/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br><a href="http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/geoopt/refr.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/</span><span class="invisible">hbase/geoopt/refr.html</span></a><br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DNbkKBW0K8" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=1DNbkKBW0K</span><span class="invisible">8</span></a></p><p><a href="http://www.atlasoftheuniverse.com/galaxy.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">atlasoftheuniverse.com/galaxy.</span><span class="invisible">html</span></a><br><a href="https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap110617.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap110617.ht</span><span class="invisible">ml</span></a></p><p><a href="https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap250324.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap250324.ht</span><span class="invisible">ml</span></a></p><p><a href="https://defcon.social/tags/space" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>space</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/moon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>moon</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/earth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>earth</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/galaxy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>galaxy</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/milkyway" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>milkyway</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/astrophotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>astrophotography</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/video" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>video</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/NASA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NASA</span></a></p>
JeffIn my off season this past fall, I decided to go to Kauai and go backpacking all over the island. Coming from Alaska it was quite pleasant to wear shorts constantly and have good fresh fruit everywhere you went. While I was camping on the west side of the island I decided to pull the camera out and get some Milky Way shots. What I totally forgot about was the <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/comet?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#comet</a> C/2023 A3 passing by our planet. <br> <br> The hooting and hollering that I made when I first looked at the image could be heard for miles.<br> <br> The upper part of the cloud is lit up from the moon rising behind the island creating a very pleasing image. <br> I am shooting this on a <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sony?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sony</a> A7iii with a 20mm f1.8 lens. 30” exposure, iso 1250 <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/milkyway?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#milkyway</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/astrophotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#astrophotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/comet?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#comet</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sonyalpha?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sonyalpha</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/kauai?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kauai</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/hawaii?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hawaii</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/beaches?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#beaches</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nightsky?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nightsky</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ocean?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ocean</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/hiking?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hiking</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/camping?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#camping</a>

Michael KingI had to go back to Sarah Ann Rocks in north west Tasmania, the coastline is stunning and perfectly aligned for a shot of the Milky Way in October. The third image in this set was captured on the first visit in 2022. I believed I could capture a better image, so returned a year later and captured the first two images here. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/photography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/astro?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#astro</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/astrophotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#astrophotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nightskyphotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nightskyphotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/milkyway?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#milkyway</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/milkyway?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#milkyway</a>-photography <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/naturephotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#naturephotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/coast?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#coast</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tasmania?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tasmania</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/seascape?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#seascape</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/seascapephotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#seascapephotography</a>
