Watching the best of the lunar eclipse

The total lunar eclipse of March 13 – 14, 2025 did not disappoint! We resolved to capture images from the late partial eclipse to maximum eclipse, mostly to be able to fit in a little sleep! Catching it all, which we could from our North America location, would have required, essentially, an all-night session. Just a bit too much!

Early partial eclipse. The brighter shadow within the penumbra lights the top portion of this image. Note a bit of reddish tone within the dark umbra. 2:08 AM EDT

I sat on a pad over the paved surface where in the cold, where the observatory is to eventually stand. The old telescope mount ticking away as it tracked the moon across the sky. Occasionally geese and ducks on the nearby pond called out against some unseen disturbance. The stars of Great Orion were sinking behind nearby trees.

Moon is deep within the umbra and last penumbra light about to be left behind. 2:19 AM EDT

In the otherwise quiet chill, I watched the lunar transition, from a bright sliver left over from the night’s Full Moon, to glowing copper orb. With a cable release I manually triggered the camera’s shutter: click — pause — click, to record the event.

Maximum eclipse. Moon is fully within the umbra but because it is not traveling through the center of Earth’s deepest shadow, scattered light from the penumbra brightens the upper limb. 2:58 AM EDT

Shortly after maximum eclipse (shown above), at 2:58 AM EDT, I shut down the telescope and, casting a wistful eye at the still-darkened Moon, went indoors. 

I fed the waiting cat, changed back to pajamas, and returned to bed. In fitful sleep, somehow still cold, happy to have sacrificed rest for the experienced phenomenon.

Tech: Askar 103 ED telescope, Canon EOS 5D Mk 4 camera, Meade Goto Mount, Photoshop. ISO 400, variable exposure times.

💟 Happy #Valentine's Day from @KronoMoonPhotos & @KronoMoon! 💟

We are exactly 1 #Gregorian #month away from #March's #FullMoon — the #WormMoon, the #TotalLunarEclipse, and the #Night of the #KrononautMoon — when we attempt to make contact with #TimeTravelers.

There have been such attempts in the past, but this time will be the first ever #global #decentralized effort. We call this type of event version 2.0, or what one might call the #Fediversion!

#TimeTravelers are invited to visit or send a #quantum #signal to us on the night of the #Total #Lunar #Eclipse. #2025Mar14 will be the first of 3 #TLEs in the next year. Everyone, your friends, family, colleagues, #pets, and of course your #sweetheart are invited to participate however you like. Just venture out under the #Moon on Thursday &/or Friday night. #Fire up a #candle, a #bonfire, a #drumcircle or other greeting for #beings in the #beyond. Together we can become one with the #cosmos.

@KronoMoon is grateful this week for many positive reactions to our project to try & contact #TimeTravelers. Warm thanks to all of you. The whole #Fediverse is invited to participate — either here or from the beyond — wherever you are.

Wednesday will be the last #FullMoon before the #TotalLunarEclipse on #2025Mar14. March's Full #Moon is the #Night of the #KrononautMoon. Please take lots of photos & share them with @KronoMoonPhotos.

The #KrononautMoon Project seeks to make contact with #TimeTravelers — i.e., extradimensional beings — by promoting decentralized community experiments during the #TotalLunarEclipse. There will be 3 #TLEclipses in the next 2 years. The first of the triad occurs next month on 2025 Mar 14, the night of the #FullMoon & March's #WormMoon. All are invited (even skeptics) to celebrate on Thursday or Friday evening under the stars — wherever you are.

@KronoMoon on #Mastodon shares toots, articles & videos on various sub-themes and sub-theories, because any theory of #TimeTravel is polydimensional, beyond our current technology, and incomplete. Often associated with #UFOs or #UAP, a real-life encounter with a #spacetime ship or a #TimeMachine is less likely than some kind of #quantum #signal. It's possible that such signals have been beaming toward us for a long time. Please take lots of #photos of the #Moon and share them with @KronoMoonPhotos, so that we can document any anomalous phenomena. The plan focuses on Lunar Eclipses that are "Total" (typically occurring about once per year) and not other types of Eclipses.
