Sept. 7, 2006 back to spaceweather.com |
 |
| Summary: On Sept. 7, 2006, the full Moon dipped into Earth's shadow for about 90 minutes, producing a partial lunar eclipse visible from Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia: map. At maximum eclipse, only about 19% of the Moon was covered, but that was enough for a pretty display.

In the first three pictures, you can see Sabine holding a hoop to outline the limits of Earth's shadow: animation. Of course, I was at the right distance (about 30 m) for the hoop to have the right size. In the last picture, she paints the Moon in black. So, people think it's a Moon eclipse! |

I took this photo of the lunar eclipse just after being asked a question by my son Douglas... 'Dad, why do you take so many pictures?'. He now knows the answer! |

1/60sec 100 ASA. At moonrise our natural satellite has lost its northern pole but... not for any longer. |

#1 | Perfect viewing conditions. The big orange rising moon gave its way to quite a 'bitten' moon. A nice little eclipse! |

The beginning, the maximum and the end of the partial lunar eclipse of 2006 September 7. The 3 pictures are stacked to show the Earth shadow. The pictures were taken with an Canon PowerShot A510 digital camera throught my homemade 150 mm F/5 dobson telescop. Although the eclipse was so small it was very nice and few tenth people joined me to observe the eclipse in a park |
