One Week to the Solar Eclipse
Eclipse sequence as seen from Adelaide, 6:50-8:10 am ACDST
Just one week to go until the Solar Eclipse on 14 November 2012. If you want to make a last minute dash to north Queensland to get in the path of totality, you better get a move on, flights and accommodation will be hard to get (and quite expensive).
If you are staying home, then there is still plenty of time to organise safe solar projection devices, but if you want to buy eclipse glasses or solar filter material then you will have to get a move on.
I have a reasonably comprehensive web page for eclipse viewing, as well I have a handy, printable PDF page that lists a whole bunch of eclipse times which you can carry around with you. It also has a bunch of things for kids to do.
The eclipse starts shortly after sunrise. Here’s a quick table of eclipse times to whet you appetite for the upcoming event.
