Lunar Eclipse Maestro controls up to four USB or Firewire connected cameras (Nikon and Canon DSLRs, plus Nikon Coolpix line) and up to four USB or Ethernet connected SBIG CCD cameras with their filter wheels during an eclipse so that you can be free to concentrate on observing the event visually. Actions can be preprogrammed according to a script. Observer position (latitude and longitude coordinates, altitude) is used to calculate local circumstances so that camera actions can be referenced to specific eclipse events. Refraction and deltaT correction supported. Moon-Earth's umbra/penumbra diagram and large event countdown display. Eclipse map with mouse-over geographic cursor coordinates and eclipse type info to indicate where to go. A maximum eclipse diagram at the mouse-over location can also be displayed.
- Live View (Lv) mode support to allow easier focussing and exposure compensation.
- Night vision mode to preserve your dark adaptation for totality.
- Exposure Calculator to find the best exposure for each eclipse event.
- Support for all Nikon and Canon DSLRs.
- Support for all SBIG CCD cameras with their filter wheels.
- Sky chart.
- PDF exports.
- etc...
If you are in Australia, parts of the western US, western South America, or in South-East Asia, you will see a Super Full Moon totally eclipsed for about 14 minutes during this total lunar eclipse, weather permitting.
What This Lunar Eclipse Looks Like
Total lunar eclipses are also sometimes called Blood Moons because of the reddish-orange glow the Moon takes on during the eclipse. On the day of the eclipse, the Full Moon will be closest to the Earth, so it may look a larger in the sky, making it a Blood Super Moon eclipse. Total lunar eclipses are also sometimes called Blood Moons because of the reddish-orange glow the Moon takes on during the eclipse. On the day of the eclipse, the Full Moon will be closest to the Earth, so it may look a larger in the sky, making it a Blood Super Moon eclipse. Lunar Eclipse Maestrocontrols up to four USB or Firewire connected cameras (Nikon, Canonand PanasonicDSLRs, Ricoh, plus Nikon Coolpix line) and up to four USB or Ethernet connected SBIGCCD cameras with their filter wheels during a lunar eclipse, so that you can be free to concentrate on observing the event visually. Lunar Eclipse Maestro To compute all the dates and types of eclipses of the Moon, a lunar eclipse calculatoris available for your own use. A time exposure calculatoris there to.
The curvature of the shadow's path and the apparent rotation of the Moon's disk is due to the Earth's rotation.

Usually, there are two eclipses in a row, but other times, there are three during the same eclipse season.
This is the first eclipse this season.
