Total Lunar Eclipse Next Week

W e have a total lunar eclipse occurring in our area next week so I've been preparing for it. I decided it would be best to shoot photos of this eclipse through my Explore Scientific APO 102mm refractor telescope. I'll mount this telescope on my good tracking mount so the telescope will track the moon through the night. I also decided to use my best camera... my Sony a7RIIIa. I set up this combination of equipment in the living room this morning so I could test everything. I set this up early because I wanted to know if I need any extension tubes to get the camera to focus. It turns out that I actually needed to remove an extension tube. It is more convenient to get all of this out of the way before I'm outside in the dark and cold. Below is a photo showing the view through this telescope using this camera. This is the ridge of a mountaintop quite a distance away (2-3 miles away?)... Unfortunately, all of this is likely ...
