APOD 1.2 September 7

The recent lunar eclipse of August 28th was recorded recently at the South Pole by Robert Schwarz. I think it would be cool to see the moon here where it doesn't set for fourteen days. It was really freakin cold though, like I thought, so Schwarz had to record the photos through a slit in a heated room. Though these photos are slightly blurred due to the convection of the room, this man showed great bravery in enduring the cold and providing a revealing glimpse into the lunar cycles of the South Pole. I didn't know anybody resided at the South Pole, nor that the amount of atmosphere makes the photos even blurrier. It still looks really cool.
