Total Lunar Eclipse December 21, 2010 Winter Solstice

Total Lunar Eclipse December 21, 2010
New York, NY Celestron 4SE telescope. All exposures were taken with Canon 40D. Backyard astronomy and digital astrophotography. Weather in New Your during the eclipse time was fantastic, but a little bit cold.

Total Lunar Eclipse Celestron NexStar 4SE Canon 40D

The eclipse of December 21 2010 Tuesday morning was the first total lunar eclipse to occur on the day of the Northern Winter Solstice - the shortest day and longest night of the year (Southern Summer Solstice) since 1638 (first time in 372 years), and only the second in the Common Era. That will not happen again until 2094.

The eclipse was the first total lunar eclipse in almost three years, since the February 2008 total lunar eclipse. It is the second of two lunar eclipses in 2010.

Blue Moon (November 21, 2010) - Year 2010
Canon EOS 40D camera and Celestron NexImage 4SE telescope - Backyard astronomy Digital Full Moon Photography

A blue moon can refer to the third full moon in a season with four full moons. The earliest recorded English usage of the term "blue moon" was in a 1528.
In 2010 Blue Moon was November 21.

There are 4 photos of the Blue Moon.
First photo was colored in Photoshop.

1. Neutralize the colors (the median of the values of R, G and B is the same).
2. Create two duplicated layers.
3. First layer set as luminosity
4. Saturate the second layer.
5. Make invisible main background layer.
6. Play games with best parameters
So those colors are real, and the only difference is that they've been exaggerated a bit :)

Second photo: Blue Moon - White Balance: Tungsten light
Third photo: White-Black Moon - White Balance: Cloudy, twilight, sunset
Fourth photo: Yellow-Red Moon - White Balance: Shade

Tycho is a relatively young crater (about 108 million years). This age suggests that the impactor may have been a member of the Baptistina family of asteroids. A larger asteroid from the same family may have been the impactor responsible for creating Chicxulub Crater on Earth 65 million years ago, and causing the extinction of the dinosaurs.

Copernicus is a lunar crater named after the astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus. The crater is located in eastern Oceanus Procellarum. It is estimated to be about 800 million years old. The circular rim has a 30 km wide. The crater rays spread as far as 800 kilometers across the surrounding mare.
