The moon is full tonight, with Jupiter preceeding it across the sky.
Jupiter and it's moons are visible with a modest telescope.

Originally posted by NordlysWe had a full lunar eclipse a couple of years ago, it was a strange sight, I had a small telescope trained on the moon and when it disappeared, it DISSAPEARED! even through the scope.
And I missed the partial lunar eclipse last night. 😞

I would like to be n the moon during a total lunar eclipse,from there it would be a solar eclipse of course. Whatching the golden rim of the earth... Mmmm...

Don't think so. It would be quite a sight for sure!
