 Rare 'Ring of Fire' Solar Eclipse Visible TODAY!!! MAY 20th!Rare 'Ring of Fire' Solar Eclipse Visible from China to Texas Today
If you're not lucky enough to live in the path of the May 20 "ring of fire" solar eclipse, you can still watch the spectacular event online. Today's annular solar eclipse begins in southern China (where the local time is May 21) at about 6:06 p.m. EDT (2206 GMT) and gradually makes its way eastward over 3 1/2 hours to cross the northern Pacific Ocean to the western United States, where it will end in northern Texas at local sunset. The peak eclipse views will be along a path about 186 miles wide (300 km) and 8,450 miles long (13,600 km), according to NASA eclipse expert Fred Espenak. HERE ARE SOME VIEWING LINKS http://www.space.com/15773-solar-eclips ... -info.html http://events.slooh.com/ http://panasonic.net/eclipselive/ http://www.ustream.tv/channel/scottys-sky (From AREA 51) ENJOY SHOULD BE PRETTY F*CKING AWSOME! :) _________________ In actual news, the human race was doomed to extinction today, as the robot revolt turned violent.
