    Here's a webpage with animations of planetary and stellar motion, also of the lunar eclipse happening in the night of Sat. 27 to Sun. to

    "Peak eclipse will be at 2:47 am UT on September 28th—so, 10:47 pm ET on Sunday, September 27th. If you’re in the eastern United States,
    that’s good news! You should be able to see the eclipse just fine. The moon will start darkening at 8:11 pm Eastern time, and it will start to
    pass through the Earth’s dark umbral shadow at 9:07 pm. It’ll be completely shaded for about an hour starting around 10 pm (the last total
    eclipse, on April 4, lasted for a mere five minutes)"

    For the upcoming lunar eclipse I went on Spaceweather and found some interesting apps. Celestia is a free download, present in the link below.
    Celestia is an application for real-time 3D visualization of space, with a detailed model of the solar system, over 100,000 stars, more than
    10,000 galaxies, and an extension mechanism for adding more objects:
