An asteroid some 250m (600ft) across is about to sweep past the Earth.
There is no chance of it hitting the planet, but astronomers will train telescopes and radar on the object to learn as much about it as they can.
The asteroid - which carries the rather dull designation 2007 TU24 - will pass by at a distance of 538,000km (334,000 miles), just outside Moon's orbit.

The software depending on what type is expensive but a camera adapter for a telescope doesnt cost as much.

Hi Louby i use Autostar Suite that i put up on the laptop with my 10" Goto scope, also can get a camera adapter.
I have a pic on my laptop at Tony's that ill put up later of last years eclipse.
I was taught to do astrophotography at my astronomical society also a lesson when i purchased the telescope.

I have mine on the wall Facing North. Doesnt get the sun and like OON says wants to be in the shade so it don't mess with termperature readings.

Hopefully will be a clear crisp frosty night.

Across the whole of the UK. An early morning event running through to the start of dawn so an alarm might be in order. The transition occurs between the two regions isnt sharp, and as the moon moes through the outer penumbra toward the umbra, a definite darkening occurs along one edge of the Moon until eventually the dark umbra makes itself known as a dark bite encrouching on the surface. The umbra is the earths shadow which the sunlight is blocked. The atmosphere is refracted which decreases the dark of the umbra. The moon will be redish or a hue.
First contact @ 00h 35m
Umbral contact @ 01h 43m
Start of totality @ 03h 01m
Greatest eclipse @ 03h 26m
end of totslity @ 03h 52m
Last umbral contact @ 05h 09m
Last penumbral contact @ 06h 17m

WASHINGTON - Astronomers funded by NASA are monitoring the trajectory of an asteroid estimated to be 164-feet wide that is expected to cross Mars' orbital path early next year. Observations provided by the astronomers and analyzed by NASA's Near-Earth Object Office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., indicate the object may pass within 30,000 miles of Mars at about 6 a.m. EST on Jan. 30, 2008.

The first spacecraft to visit Mercury in more than 30 years passes the planet on Monday at a distance of just 200km.
The fly-by is the first of three the Messenger probe will make in the coming years as it slows itself to enter into orbit around the small world in 2011.
The US spacecraft will collect more than 1,300 images and make other observations during the encounter.
No probe has viewed Mercury up close since the Mariner 10 mission's third and final fly-by in March 1975.
