Changes to introduction

16 June 1666 lunar eclipse

I just made some changes to the introduction:

  1. Add image from Philosophical Transactions, Volume 1, Number 21.
  2. Add archiveurl to the cited source: Espenak, Fred. "Lunar Eclipses: 1601 to 1700 (1601 CE to 1700 CE)". NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Archived from the original on 2008-05-11. Retrieved 2013-05-22.
  3. Pad the introduction with details from "lunar eclipse" (adds context, improves layout).

The image is specific to this list. On the other hand, I am pretty sure that this article is not the only one dependent upon a now-dead-link to the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center pages published by Fred Espenak.

The dead link can be replaced by [1], "LEcat" changed to "LEcat5". Tom Ruen (talk) 23:04, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
