Penumbral Lunar Eclipse - 9th Febuary 2009 - Animation

[cwjames]

Hi All,

I finaly got around to making a simple animation of last Monday nights Lunar Eclipse.

As the earths penumbral shadow on the moon is suttle, the animation is much better at showing the shadow moving accross the face of the moon.

You can see the animation at the url below.

Thanks for Looking.

Good one Chris, the animation shows the movement of the moon into earth's shadow really well.
