                          Lunar Eclipse at the South Pole   
                      Image Credit & Copyright: Aman Chokshi   
      
      Explanation: Last May 16 the Moon slid through Earth's shadow,   
      completely immersed in the planet's dark umbra for about 1 hour and 25   
      minutes during a total lunar eclipse. In this composited timelapse   
      view, the partial and total phases of the eclipse were captured as the   
      Moon tracked above the horizon from Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station.   
      There it shared a cold and starry south polar night with a surging   
      display of the aurora australis and central Milky Way. In the   
      foreground are the BICEP (right) and South Pole telescopes at the   
      southernmost station's Dark Sector Laboratory. But while polar skies   
      can be spectacular, you won't want to go to the South Pole to view the   
      total lunar eclipse coming up on November 8. Instead, that eclipse can   
      be seen from locations in Asia, Australia, the Pacific, the Americas   
      and Northern Europe. It will be your last chance to watch a total lunar   
      eclipse until 2025.
