Rare hybrid solar eclipse Sunday, 11/03/13

[MoodyBlues]

I don't know that I'll be up to watch it [online], but it should be awesome!

There's a rare hybrid solar eclipse coming on Sunday, and no matter where you are in the world, you will be able to see it — thanks to the Internet.

If you live on the Eastern Seaboard of the United States, in parts of southern Europe or anywhere in Africa, then you can enjoy this eclipse firsthand with a little planning and the proper viewing glasses, of course.

If you live in Los Angeles or somewhere that is not any of the places mentioned above, then you will have to turn to your computer if you want to watch the eclipse live...

You can view it at Slooh.com starting at 3:45am PST.

I'm going to try to have a looky at it, it's been very cloudy and rainy here though. Hope there are clear skies.

Please post and let us know if you see it, okay Clementine? Oh, and be sure to protect your eyes!

 

[Clementine_3]

Will do and will do!

Will be at work at that time, but hopefully I'll have a sec to get outside to see it. Looks to be clear weather in the morning too.

Report back, okay bread? I'd love to hear firsthand accounts! Over here on the left coast we can only see it online.

I'm in the wrong area, but would love to see it in my solar H-Alpha scope. (It's made to look at the sun. ) I did get the Mercury and Venus transits.

Boo. Here is my morning sky I was going to jump in the car and find a good view but that would be quite a drive.

Sorry, I know the feeling. Several years ago I tried to see an eclipse, and instead got nothing but clouds too.
