Subject: Pacific Solar Eclipse--today!

Space Weather News for Oct. 13, 2004
http://spaceweather.com

Later today, Oct 13th, the New Moon will glide in front of the sun,
producing a partial solar eclipse visible across much of the Pacific
Ocean. The event begins shortly before sundown in Hawaii and Alaska, where
the setting sun will appear crescent-shaped as the moon takes a bite out
of it.

Warning: do not stare at the blinding sun even during an eclipse. Visit
http://spaceweather.com for safe observing tips and more information.

[Delicacy]

A partial eclipse sounds much more interesting than watching the debate. I'm not in western Alaska, but we should be able to see something a little different. I'll let you know tomorrow. Thanks for the information and the heads up.

BIG SUNSPOT: During the weekend, sunspot 687 grew impressively. It's now almost 10 times wider than Earth, and it is surrounded by a number of other growing 'spots. Solar activity, low for weeks, could increase in the days ahead.

LUNAR ECLIPSE: Don't forget, there's a lunar eclipse this week visible from six continents. In the Americas, the event begins Wednesday night, Oct. 27th, at 9:14 p.m. EDT (6:14 p.m. PDT).

What's the sun?

Don't forget, here in the Pacific NorthWet, we have a rash of UFO calls whenever that strange yellow orb shows itself.
