27 Jul hundreds of millions of people around the world watched the total Eclipse of the moon. And who admired him at the South pole? Robert Schwarz took this picture on of the US Antarctic station Amundsen-Scott.
The top is Mars, and the Moon was down, and their crosses band Aurora. Schwartz winters at the South pole, the 8th consecutive year and 14th year overall. He said that currently is working on an experiment to study the relic radiation, called SPUD/KECK. The building in the picture is the Martin Observatory Orange, which is the telescope.
As noted by Schwartz, the weather was definitely not ideal for photography — pretty misty, snowing and the wind was blowing at a speed of about 25 knots, but at least it was fairly warm — about minus 45 degrees.
It was the longest lunar Eclipse of the century — the total phase lasted 1 hour and 43 minutes, which gave the observers on 6 continents enough time to do admire them and make stunning images.
