You hold my beer and I'll do the first part.

Cool shot, I like looking at the moon, stars as well as seeing satellites flying by on a clear night.

You did right.

That must have been quite a sight to see, and the only lunar eclipse this year. I still remember the total solar eclipse I was able to see when I was a kid. Still have the pics such as they are. Taken through a welders helmet glass of course. A lunar eclipse is much better for the average person because you can watch it with unprotected eyes.

going backwards to the celestial navigation discussion--I live in chapel Hill NC which is the home of the University of NC.  The UNC has the Morehead Planetarium which was ( and still is) the celestial navigation training grounds for all NASA astronauts. In the early 70's, I had an undergraduate astronomy class there and there were 2 astronauts in our class.  They were there for 1 semester and took multiple celestial navigation courses .  The planetarium could use their projector to show space(stars, planets) from any angle,any place, at any time.  It is still in use today.

I just might have to see about learning a bit about celestial navigation and try out the old-school sextant I have collected and now have on display...start with the basics and see how it goes. So much junk on the interweb, might as well weed through it and get something good out of it!
