Total Lunar Eclipse


Just finished viewing and imaging a Total Lunar Eclipse, so thought I'd post some images.


The next Total Lunar Eclipse won't be til April of 2014, having said that there will still be a lot of celestial delights going on before then, especially in 2012.

First off because of all the solar activity going on, 2012 promises to bring lots of Auroras.

The Evening of Saturday March 3 you'll see the Moon, Venus, Mercury, Saturn and Mars in the sky at the same time with Orion right in the middle of them. A few weeks later Monday March 26 we get to see a triangle shape conjunction of the Moon, Pleiades and Venus, doesn't happen that often, should be cool to view and image.

Venus gets real close to the Pleiades, almost right in the mix Tuesday April 3, again a rare occurrence and won't happen again for another 8 years.

Now on Sunday May 20 the American Southwest gets treated to a Partial Solar Eclipse..but not just any kind of Partial, It will be an Annular, very rare, when the Moon fits just inside the Sun. Most of Canada will receive a regular Partial Solar Eclipse but I am seriously considering driving down to the states just to see and photograph it, it's that cool.

Another biggie....Tuesday June 5 we get a transit of Venus across the face of the Sun, most of Canada will get to see some or all of the event.

Last but not least Monday August 13 we get a daytime Occultation of Venus as the Moon sweeps in front of it. Theses are just some of the major events taking place... a very good year, then we got the whole end of the world thing going on December 21. I'll try to keep you up todate closer to the events so you don't miss.

I wish to just submerge myself in the eclipse.

Mike said...

Hi again Bob. These are really nice. I have so many trees here, I can never see a clear shot of the Moon often.

I was reading they might have found the Higgs boson. Pretty exciting if they did.

I have a new jazz music blog if you are into jazz. Have a good Christmas.

Ivanhoe said...

Oh Bob, these are gorgeous! I'm glad to see you back :) Enjoy your weekend!

Stephanie Barr said...

Cool beans.

(That's technical jargon from the Rocket Scientist).

myonlyphoto said...

Hey Bob, wow for the photos, and of course I missed the whole show. Hope you are doing well. Anna :)

Jean Levert Hood said...

Great shots, Bob!! We had heavy cloud cover, sigh....
Keep reminding us of what's coming next, please!

Moonshadow said...

Great shots as usual!

Where in the states are you thinking of traveling to?

Bob Johnson said...

Hey Kimmy, you are so deep, love it.

Bob Johnson said...

Hi Mike, thanks. I do love jazz, will have to check it out. YA been keeping up with the whole HB thing, the god particle, very interesting stuff.

Bob Johnson said...

Thanks Ivanhoe, good to be back and see you are still blogging.

Bob Johnson said...

Ha thanks Stephanie, always good to get tech jargon from the Rocket Scientist.

Bob Johnson said...

Thanks Anna, how have you been doing? my Moon buddy, haven't noticed any photos lately.

Bob Johnson said...

Thanks Jean, I will.

Bob Johnson said...

Thanks Moonshadow. About 90 percent chance I will be taking the car cause I want to experience the whole drive, like route 66. it intersects the middle of the annular path at Albuquerque. Will also be going to Roswell.

I am not sure what path I will be taking down yet, if it happens to be through Kansas I will let you know.

Swubird said...

Fishlover said...

Wow what a beautiful shot! The last thing I saw like this is when I was a kid in the Philippines, its so funny because we used an old film to witnessed the eclipse. Nice memories though.
