As it settled down very early in the evening.. as seen from Southern Hemispheric , Auckland New Zealand… as the month progress from October, The planet Mars  path into the constellation of Sagittarius below it as it’s known as the teapot know if you can see the stick drawings of one..

As in the month of October came there was a Luna Eclipse on the eighth of October on that windy cloudy night… massively teasing the eclipse viewers..  Progressively on some clear nights there has been some awesome views of the shadowy cratered depths of the moon has it goes from the beginnings of the first quarter to the third… And recently days there have been some good International Space station spotting on the path across above the Pointers Rigel Kent- Alpha Centauri in which points the Crux the Southern Cross that inspired the New Zealand Flag…

“the earth shadow past the moon- photographed taken through the clouds using a Meade LX-200 ten inch.. postcard freehand”-with a slighted blushing on the top.

That night of the Lunar eclipse that happen over in that one Auckland night, was interesting during the event.. The crowds amazing turned up despite the Auckland weather was saying sever overcast during the whole windy night.. At Auckland Observatory in which is Known as Stardome.  Looking at the back of the courtyard in which on a nice fine night there are assortments of armaments of telescopes looking out into the starry night sky, where this night looking out to One Tree Hill the numerous traffic of cars heading on to the summit to get to best views, to the apparentness that view didn’t suffice to the reckoning cloudy weather that clouded mostly sheering away the view of the climax of where the moon went to a blushing Luna Rosa..

Never before seen so many cars pilgrimage up to the summit….. Given that It was a fine night, it would able to taken some postcards of the event… But only where there were some random teasing openings… To seeing the moments after where the where blushed still sheered by the clouds…  there was some okay decent postcards photographs taken by mostly were the event you could see the  earth shadow have slightly slowed unrobed its shadow cast on the Luna Surface. Through the telescope..

At times during the times of event, noticing everyone in every Socials that I could think off, mostly northern hemisphere had some of the best views… And keep saying that “what!” word that the Doctor keep saying, and then looking at Auckland’s cloudy night sky… until the event ended later at 2200 hours in New Zealand  time..
