At some points when I was at Cornell, I lived near the observatory on campus (north campus dorms) and got to see a lunar eclipse through the telescope, which was awesome.
Another time I got to see Saturn's rings. Very cool. :-)
Kodak EasyShare C875 on a tripod, with a bunch of manual settings: exposure 4.0 seconds, aperture 4.0, ISO 200 "film" setting. I forced the focus to "landscape" (way far away) and used a 2 sec delay setting so depressing the shutter button wouldn't introduce blurriness.
