                                Eclipse in the City   
                       Image Credit & Copyright: Stan Honda   
      
      Explanation: A darker Moon sets over Manhattan in this night skyscape.   
      The 16 frame composite was assembled from consecutive exposures   
      recorded during the November 8 total lunar eclipse. In the timelapse   
      sequence stars leave short trails above the urban skyline, while the   
      Moon remains immersed in Earth's shadow. But the International Space   
      Station was just emerging from the shadow into the sunlit portion of   
      its low Earth orbit. As seen from New York City, the visible streak of   
      this ISS flyover starts near a star in Taurus and tracks right to left,   
      through the belt of Orion and over Sirius, alpha star of Canis Major.   
      Gaps along the bright trail of the fast moving orbital outpost (and an   
      aircraft flying closer to the horizon) mark the time between individual   
      exposures in the sequence. The trail of bright planet Mars is at the   
      top of the frame. Pleiades star cluster trails are high over the   
      eclipsed Moon and Empire State Building.
