Eclipse Images

We only had a 58% partial here. I used my telescope to project onto the ceiling.

very cool!

I didn't know you could do that!!!!!!!! We saw it around 60% I think, through a welder's helmet. I heard there's supposed to be another eclipse that will hit the Houston area with around 90% percent in 202ish? Could be wrong on that point.

Cool! We had an eclipse party at work, but we only had 50 percent or so. I got a lame picture on my phone through eclipse glasses. Did you see the picture of 7 frames of the ISS crossing the eclipse? It's been my wallpaper since the day after haha. Very cool.

Awesome! Too bad I didn't get the chance to take a picture of the eclipse.

Excuse me, if I say something stupid. But you create it as shadow, didnot you?

You can use a simple pinhole in a sheet of paper to create a projection. Using the telescope gets a brighter, more detailed image. If you look in my images, you can see sunspots, which wouldn't be visible without the scope.
