Stellarium is a free open source planetarium for your computer. It shows a realistic sky in 3D, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope.
Imagine everything that’s great about Google Earth but pointing at the sky. Available free for Linux, OSX and Windows.
What a cool way to start our blog with an inaugural post about the Total Lunar Eclipse going on right now (We are in the Eastern time zone). Space.com has all the details including an explanation of what an eclipse is, and the times it will effect area of the earth. I will try to find photos to post. My attempt with my Canon 20D did not go so well… clouds kept blurring the photo.
