I had a pretty good decade in the 1990s, into the 2000's, and I thought I'd write a sort of memoir-type book of my experiences. It's not done yet, and when it is, it'll be a little too much for a web site. But I've included here some of the excerpts that I thought would be interesting.

For other uses, see Total Eclipse (disambiguation) Totality during the 1999 solar eclipse. Solar prominences can be seen along the limb (in red) as well as extensive coronal filaments. An eclipse is an astronomical event that occurs when a celestial object is temporarily obscured, either by passing into the shadow of another body or by having another body pass between it and the viewer. An eclipse is a type of syzygy The term eclipse is most often used to describe either a solar eclipse , when the Moon's shadow crosses the Earth's surface, or a lunar eclipse , when the Moon moves into the shadow of Earth. However, it can also refer to such events beyond the Earth-Moon system: for example, a planet moving into the shadow cast by one of its moons, a moon passing into the shadow cast by its host planet, or a moon passing into the shadow of another moon. A binary star system can also produce eclipses if the plane of their orbit intersects the position of the observer.

ECLIPSES
General: Solar Eclipses Lunar Eclipses Solar - 8th April 2005 ... Lunar - 21st December 2010 The Sun is about 400 times larger than the Moon and is also 400 times further from the Earth than the Moon, causing them to appear nearly the same size as seen from the Earth. Slight variations in the Sun and Moon`s distance from the Earth cause the Moon to appear sometimes smaller or larger than the Sun. The Moon's shadow has three components - the Umbra, Penumbra and Antumbra. (The Earth's shadow has the same components, but only the penumbra and umbra play a part in eclipses.) Solar Eclipses
Total Eclipses - When the moon appears large enough to completely cover the sun, a total eclipse can occur. The darkest shadow is the central umbra and anyone in this shadow, will experience the total eclipse and will not be able to see the Sun. During totality observers can see solar prominences, the faint inner solar atmosphere (chromosphere), and the Sun's brilliant outer atmosphere (coronal halo), which are too faint to be seen when any part of the bright solar disk is exposed. In addition, the sky usually darkens enough to reveal bright stars and planets while a twilight glow circles around the horizon. Partial Eclipses - The outer shadow, the penumbra, is not as dark as the umbra. Part of the Sun can be seen from within the penumbra which becomes less dark the closer you get to its outer edge. Anyone within the penumbral shadow of either the Earth or the Moon, will see a

    Can you imagine the sun going dark in the middle of a cloudless day? A total solar eclipse is the most awesome astronomical sight you can see. The light of day fades to night, the sun turns into a dark hole surrounded by a glowing crown, bright planets and stars are visible, the horizon and sky are full of color - but only for a few minutes - then it all turns around again as you return from the surreal world of totality and contemplate what you've seen. Within minutes it seems to be a distant vision and if you want to see that again - you become an eclipse chaser!

All About Solar Eclipses
A solar eclipse is probably the most spectacular celestial event that people can experience. The Moon slowly turns broad daylight into night as it glides in front of the Sun, hiding it from view. If the eclipse is total, at mid- eclipse, the Sun has completely vanished, but its ephemeral corona surrounds the blackened Moon like a crown. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon comes between the Earth and the Sun, and casts its shadow on the Earth. For obvious reasons, an eclipse of the Sun can happen only when the Moon is new, and thus lies on the Sun-side of the Earth. If the Moon's orbit lay in the same plane as that of the Earth, there would be an eclipse every month. However, because the lunar orbit is tilted at an angle of about five degrees, most times the New Moon passes unseen either above or below the Sun in the sky and no eclipse is seen on Earth. Solar eclipses are of three types: total, partial and annular. Which kind you see depends on what part of the Moon's shadow passes over you and the distance between the Earth and the Moon at the time of the eclipse. An eclipse of the Sun occurs when the Earth passes through the Moon's shadow.

All About Eclipses
An eclipse is defined as an astronomical event that occurs when one celestial object moves into the shadow of another, partially or fully obscuring it from view. An eclipse on Earth occurs when the Sun , the Earth and the moon are all in a line together. The two primary types of eclipses seen from Earth are the solar eclipse and the lunar eclipse. These two types of eclipses can then be broken down into four different types; a total eclipse, partial eclipse, annular eclipse or hybrid eclipse. The term solar eclipse describes the occurrence of when the moon travels between the Sun and the Earth, blocking the Sun’s light from the Earth in the middle of the day, and generally giving the appearance of a ring of light in the darkened sky. During a lunar eclipse, the moon moves into the shadow of the Earth during night time hours, gradually blocking the view of the moon form the Earth. Eclipses have also been known to occur on other planets as well. On Earth, there can be anywhere from four to seven eclipses of varying degrees within any given year. For more eclipse information on both lunar and solar eclipses, simply select any eclipse article, eclipse picture or other interactive eclipse feature below.

Lunar Eclipses
In a penumbral eclipse (also called an appulse) the moon goes through the penumbra without ever entering the umbra. Only a slight dimming can be noticed. Lunar eclipses are easy to observe because they can be seen anywhere in the whole hemisphere for which the moon is above the horizon at the time. There can be anywhere from to 3 lunar eclipses in a given year.
Solar Eclipses
annular eclipse with a ring of the sun still visible around the moon. A note on timing. Astrologers generally set up eclipse charts for the moment of conjunction or opposition in longitude. When astronomers want a moment as the center or peak of an eclipse, they take the moment of conjunction in Right Ascension. The point of central eclipse occurs at local apparent noon for the point on the path of totality at the moment of the conjunction in Right Ascension.
Cycles
saros I leave it to others how eclipses are to be interpreted. Perhaps they are just one more astrological inkblot.

"To witness a total eclipse of the Sun is a privilege that comes to but few people. Once seen, however, it is a phenomenon never to be forgotten. The black body of the Moon standing out ... i n sinister relief between Sun and Earth, the sudden outflashing glory and radiance of the pearly corona which can be seen at no other time, the scarlet prominences rising from the surface of the hidden Sun to heights of many thousand miles, the unaccustomed presence of the brighter stars and planets in the daytime, the darkness of twilight and the unusual chill in the air. There is something in it all that affects even the strongest nerves and it is almost with a sigh of relief that we hail the return of the friendly Sun." Isabel M. Lewis, 1924

This diagram (wildly out of scale) shows a side view of the alignment. From anywhere in the gray penumbra, you will see some part of the sun shining from behind the moon. The penumbra is the area of partial eclipse. Only from within the tiny area where the dark umbra touches the earth will you see the sun completely covered and witness a total eclipse. The earth and the moon are not fixed objects. The moon is busy orbiting the earth. The earth is busy orbiting the sun and additionally rotating on its axis. This means that the spot on the earth where the umbra falls is always in motion and actually traces out a path. This diagram shows the path of the umbra for an eclipse on December 4, 2002. Only the central blue lines mark out the path of the umbra. The much wider area shows the path of the larger penumbra, where a partial eclipse can be seen.

Met Loretta on this cruise, so it has to go down as both the ultimate eclipse trip and the ultimate cruise (for me). Saw this one along with my old KAS buddies off the coast of Mexico. After observing the previous two eclipses telescopically, I decided to try binoculars on this one. Here I am waiting for totality, waiting for Loretta.
