      Explanation: Rain clouds passed and the dome of the Lick Observatory's   
      36 inch Great Refractor opened on November 19. The historic telescope   
      was pointed toward a partially eclipsed Moon. Illuminated by dim red   
      lighting to preserve an astronomer's night vision, telescope controls,   
      coordinate dials, and the refractor's 57 foot long barrel were captured   
      in this high dynamic range image. Visible beyond the foreshortened   
      barrel and dome slit, growing brighter after its almost total eclipse   
      phase, the lunar disk created a colorful halo through lingering clouds.   
      From the open dome, the view of the clearing sky above includes the   
      Pleiades star cluster about 5 degrees from Moon and Earth's shadow.
