                        A Deep Sky Behind an Eclipsed Moon   
                  Image Credit & Copyright: Andrei Ionut Dascalu   
      
      Explanation: The plan was to capture a picturesque part of the sky that   
      was hosting an unusual guest. The result included a bonus CÇö an   
      additional and unexpected guest. The beautiful background features part   
      of the central band of our Milky Way galaxy on the far left, and the   
      colorful clouds of Rho Ophiuchi in the image center. The unusual guest,   
      a dimmed and reddened Moon on the right, was expected because the image   
      was taken during last weekCÇÖs total lunar eclipse. The timing had to be   
      right because the Moon CÇö both before and after eclipse CÇö would be so   
      bright it would overwhelm the background. The unexpected guest was the   
      bright meteor across the image center. The fleeting meteor streak was   
      captured on only one of the 10 consecutively-captured deep-field images   
      from La Palma in the Spanish Canary Islands, while the eclipsed Moon   
      image was taken immediately afterwards with the same camera and from   
      the same location. The next total lunar eclipse CÇö also quite expected CÇö   
      will occur in early November.
