Good Red Friday morning, Rallypoint, and welcome to the Astronomy Picture of the Day for January 3, 2025.
We saw one example of dedication yesterday (the solar analemma APOD))...here's another one. An eclipse 'season' occurs when the Moon, Earth, and Sun are relatively aligned. Each eclipse season produces a lunar/solar eclipse pair; one follows the other after a period of ~14 days. The first eclipse season for 2025 is March 14-29,
Hats off to the astrophotographer that captured the partial lunar eclipse from the United Kingdom (Somerset) and annular solar eclipse from Easter Island (Rapa Nui) in the last eclipse season of 2024 (Sep 18 - Oct 2). Can you imagine being paid to be an eclipse chaser? I would apply.
