    Total Eclipse of the Sun Live Webcast!

    On March 29, 2006, a total solar eclipse will occur when the new moon moves directly between the sun and the earth. The moon’s shadow will fall on the eastern tip of Brazil, speed eastward across the Atlantic, through northern Africa, across the Mediterranean, and into Turkey, where an Exploratorium team will be waiting to share the experience with the world via the internet.


    Watch the LIVE Webcast
    10:00–11:15 UT (Time and Date Help) Join Exploratorium Senior Scientist Dr. Paul Doherty and NASA’s Dr. Isabel Hawkins, who will show us what to look for before, during, and after totality. They’ll also talk with Side Mayor Osman Delikkulak, and watch Turkish children exploring the eclipse’s strange play of light and shadow.

    or

    Watch the LIVE Telescope-only Feed 9:30–12:30 UT (Time and Date Help)This stream is for people who only want to see the eclipse. There is no audio; the video is a mix of four different telescope feeds.

    They'll even have the feeds archived for those of us who will be asleep during the actual event.
    I'm going to visit NASA's eclipse site for a bunch of neat edu-goodies & stories to share with the kids before and after we watch the archived feed of the event tomorrow around noon.
