Solar Eclipse

Did anyone get to see the Solar Eclipse this weekend? In Norway 91% of the Sun was covered, and almost 20,000 people showed up (including myself) to see it in one of Oslo's biggest parks (at 4:45 am ). It was a really cool event! I've seen partial eclipses before, but this was the biggest so far.

Anyone ever seen a total eclipse? What was it like?

Solar Eclipse

I saw a total one. It was in August 1999. I liked it. There were people who thought that it will be as dark as night, or that it'd be the end of the world. A few gypsies back in my country were digging holes to hide in....well it was fun. I'll remember it for the rest of my life.
And the view was also incredible. I think I took pictures but they didn't come out-that's what the internet is for :-P it's still not going to feel as if I have taken them....

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
