It is important to take sky viewing opportunities when you can.  Tonight’s incredibly warm temperature (80 degrees Fahrenheit) combined with a clear night dominated by the approaching Full Moon was ideal for getting the telescope outside for the second time this week.

I heard a rumor of an imminent Lunar Eclipse; I will keep my fingers crossed for agreeable weather on Sunday, although the forecast is predicting a nail-biter by the time the eclipse starts, with overcast clouds changing to clear around 10 p.m. local time.

Equipment Used:

  • 127mm Mak-Cass telescope
  • 23mm eyepiece
  • No eyepiece filter
  • iPhone XS
  • Smartphone telescope eyepiece adapter
  • Nightcap app on iPhone
  • f/1.8
  • 1/800 sec exposure
  • ISO 24
  • Focal length: 4mm
  • Minor touchups in PaintShop Pro and AfterShot Pro

I have been fascinated by space since childhood. My interest in technology also runs deep, rooted in fond memories of the CRT-anchored desktops my father tinkered with in the early 1980s. Professionally, I have spent over 30 years immersed in the technology sector, serving in capacities ranging from programming and IT to project management. Outside of work, my passions lie in astrophotography, astronomy, and philosophy. At my blog, I explore these interests, and I hope you will join the conversation.
