I've never tried this, but infrared needs lots of "light." The moon, and especially its eclipse, would seem to be a low light source. Plus, you'll probably be using a telescopic lens which also cuts down on light. So, the bottom line might be long exposure times.

Here's an article about shooting fireworks in IR which might help.

Good luck. Post your results if you can.

Ended up not shooting the sky with IR, just snapped a few randoms. I'll post if I got anything.
