This coming full moon, 11/19/21 will include a total eclipse for the western hemisphere. https://www.space.com/beaver-moon-lunar-eclipse-longest-of-century-phases

Went out tonight to do a practice run, and to decided what equipment I was going to use. This was taken at prime focus of a 94mm f/7 refracting telescope, and an a6000 - 658mm efl, 1/1250sec@iso400.

Of course the exposure will be different as the moon darkens during the eclipse. This has been cropped but no other adjustments have been made. Looks like this will work well.
