Lunar eclipse simulator
This is a lunar eclipse simulator I built in about 30 minutes after realizing the weather was a bit too cloudy to always have a good view of the moon. It uses an Arduino UNO, a ShiftBrite Shield, a ChronoDot, a ShiftBar, and a Satellite Module 001. The code is very quick 'n dirty, it just dims the moon as it enters penumbra, starts tinting to red-orange as it passes through umbra totality, and reverse the process. All in real time, synchronized with the ChronoDot.
