The eclipse is underway at Moon rise for the east coast, so it was "in the grass" of the ground image and I didn't see it.
From home 2010.12.31 will be so low it would be lost in my trees.

Lunar eclipes from CdC until 2019.12.31 (it has them to 2100) [I had this all neatly aligned and the spacing got lost when I submitted it.]

Interesting Mike. Before I try it, does it have a decent image library of Nebs and Galaxies? (not that youve viewed them all natch, just your impression). Im tired of the small Sky and SN image databases.
The built in ones aren't very big. It would be nice if Stellarium would use the info in the FITS header of DSS images to put them on the display. CdC does. Adding images by hand seems to involve working out the coords, rotation and scale by trial and terror and adding them to a config file.

Barry might have some more comments.
