Image Details:

In New England we were very fogged out for the May 2022 lunar eclipse. We had an event planned for Frosty Drew Observatory and Science Center, but being so close to the water along the coast, we had been socked in for over a week. Myself and another Frosty Drew astronomer set up our equipment at separate locations. One in central CT, and myself in Providence, RI. Using both locations we were able to live stream most of the eclipse event.
This is a sequence image showing all primary stages of the eclipse. The progression of the image moves right to left, just like the Moon does for Northern Hemisphere sky watchers. Many of these images were in terrible shape from heavy amounts of fog, especially the maximum eclipse image. But it was recoverable. When observing the sequence, note that you can see the curve of Earth's umbra. This is why I orientated the images in a downward pointing arc.
