Details:
It was an extraordinary "real time" experience: last night, Saturn was eclipsed by the Moon in Argentina. It was a few minutes past midnight, and the sky was very clear. For about a minute, the ringed planet was dissapearing behind the Moon´s dark limb. And one hour later, it emerged by the opposite side of our satellite. Wonderful! I took these images with my 12" SCT and a Canon Digital Camera.
