   Explanation: A darker Moon sets over Manhattan in this night skyscape.
   The 16 frame composite was assembled from consecutive exposures
   recorded during the November 8 total lunar eclipse. In the timelapse
   sequence stars leave short trails above the urban skyline, while the
   Moon remains immersed in Earth's shadow. But the International Space
   Station was just emerging from the shadow into the sunlit portion of
   its low Earth orbit. As seen from New York City, the visible streak of
   this ISS flyover starts near a star in Taurus and tracks right to left,
   through the belt of Orion and over Sirius, alpha star of Canis Major.
   Gaps along the bright trail of the fast moving orbital outpost (and an
   aircraft flying closer to the horizon) mark the time between individual
   exposures in the sequence. The trail of bright planet Mars is at the
   top of the frame. Pleiades star cluster trails are high over the
   eclipsed Moon and Empire State Building.
