STARRY-EYED eclipse fans will
be flocking southward this sum-
mer io take in the July 11 total
solar eclipse. Capilano College ex-
tension programs will be taking a
tour group down to Mexico to
observe the rare configuration of
heavenly bodies.

The eclipse will be the longest dura-
tion eclipse that anyone will be
able to see for 142 years. It is one
of a series (Saros Cycle 4136) that
began June 14, 1360.

Capilano College astronomy in-
structor Bill Van Luven will be
joined by UBC geophysics and
astronomy curator David Vogt in
leading the eclipse tour, which will
be based at Club Med, Sonora
Bay, Mexico.

This Saturday, 2 p.m. to 3:30
p.m. in Room GI19, the tour
leaders will present a free lecture
on the ‘‘show of the century.”’

The path of totality, where you
have to be to see the total eclipse,
cuns from Wawaii, through the
southern Pacific Ocean and skirts
the scuthern tip of the Baja
peninsula.

“Everybody is going to the area
of the path of totality. The whole
area has been booked for years.
The scientific community has been
waiting for this one for decades.
And every nut in a camper is
heading down to Baja Califor-
nia,”’ he said.

The July 11 total solar ectipse
will last about seven iminutes.
Observers in the path of totality
will find ix dark enough to see the
stars and the bright planets in the
“sky. They wiil also see the sun’s

Local scientists will lead eclipse tour

outer aimosphere, the corona.

Said the astronomer, ‘‘It's a
chance to see how active the sun
is. We're just coming off a high
point of the sunspot cycle. When
that happens you get a lot of
flares."”

Those left behind in Vancouver
will likely not notice the eclipse.
The maximum ‘‘obscuration’’ will
be 14.8 per cent at 1:22 p.m., July

15 per cent bite out of the sun
here. Even if it’s a sunny day,
most people will not know what's
going on,"’ Van Luven said.

viding telescopes for safe viewing
of the local partial eclipse. To reg-
