Lunar Eclipse (Real fotos & Simulation)

My colleague Mr.Sobhan Kumar Kompalli, Scientist in Space Physics Laboratory has clicked more than 100 snaps of the beautiful 'Lunar Eclipse' that entertained earthlings on 10-Dec-2011.
Here is a matrix of few selected snaps by the  amateur  photographer.

Also have a view of the Simulated Lunar Eclipse (animation)  which I generated using the open source software 'Stellarium'.

You are welcome to watch  the drama unfold......!

  2. Good work. You must try to get school children involved in such projects. They all watch the idiot box but never look at the sky. I know retired scientists of ISRO who never saw the milky way!!!!!!!

  7. Thank you all...
    @Rao sir: I agree to you cent percent.
    Infact, I had a couple of experiences motivating school children ... (Happiness, excitement and mental satisfaction gained from them is beyond words to express ...)
    Igniting young minds with beauty of Science is a requirement of the present world.
