Sidewalk Astronomy Saturday Night

Yes, weather and schedules align tomorrow night! We'll have nice views of the moon and Jupiter at Myrtle and Lime 7-9 p.m. And you can ask me about traveling to the Faroes Islands for the total Solar Eclipse on March 20th. I just got home last night. Hint: At my location it was clouded out. I was with 500 school children and their families at a school community event. There was food, dancing and although we didn't see the total eclipse due to clouds, the sky darkened as dark as night. It was dramatic! One of my friends on the Eclipse trip, with 19 total solar eclipses under her belt, called it the most emotional eclipse she had ever witnessed. And the darkest! Around the Faroe Islands many people saw the eclipse, or saw it just before or just after totality. (My hotel staff did see it, for example, and their relatives in the next town may have missed it.) This was repeated all over the islands, who last saw a total solar eclipse in 1954!

Let me know if you'd like to see them! -- Jane Houston Jones Sere. enior Outreach Specialist, Cassini & InSight Missions @jhjones @CassiniSaturn @NASAInsight What's Up For March?
