Book excerpt: In this informative and whimsical guide to Eclipses of the Sun for children aged three to ten (and adults too!), Sun, Moon, and Little Earth, the three most popular of Celestial Buddies' Plush Planetary Playmates . . . and, coincidentally, the ones most "experienced" with solar eclipses . . . introduce youngsters to one of the most spectacular of all celestial phenomena. Combining humorous verses and fun facts with delightful illustrations by Celestial Buddies' Creator Jessie Silbert, this book explains what we know about how eclipses happen as well as what ancient people thought might have been the explanations. This book gives detailed instructions on how to view eclipses safely, and it also includes two pairs of ISO 12312-2 certified safe Eclipse-Viewing Glasses. While it focuses on the only two major eclipses that will occur in the United States and Canada over the next two decades (The October 14, 2023 Annular Eclipse, whose path of Annularity begins in Oregon and passes through Texas and into South America; and the April 8, 2024 Total Eclipse, those path of totality enters Texas from Mexico and extends through Maine and into the Canadian Maritime Provinces), this book is also a useful guide to the much more frequently occurring partial solar eclipses. It should be noted that every US State and Canadian Province will experience at least a partial eclipse of the Sun during the 2023 and 2024 eclipses.

Download or read book Solar Eclipses 2024 2027 written by Sheridan Williams FRAS and published by Bradt Travel Guides. This book was released on 2023-03-13 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeing a total solar eclipse (‘totality’ – when the sun is fully obscured by the moon) is a bucket-list event, generating a sense of wonder and even an ‘end-of-the-world’ sensation. New from Bradt, Solar Eclipses 2024–2027 is the only guide to cover the world’s next three total solar eclipses, arguably Nature’s most incredible spectacle. Written by an eclipse expert, this guide offers potential eclipse-tourists and eclipse-chasers alike everything they need to understand, prepare for and travel to each eclipse. Each eclipse will be remarkable in its own right. The 2024 totality will be visible in 15 US states, six Canadian provinces and parts of Mexico. The events offer US residents a second bite at the cherry, after many people regretted not travelling a short distance into the 2017 eclipse zone. The 2026 event is Europe’s first totality since 1999 and will be visible in Greenland, Iceland and Spain. The 2027 eclipse (visible from Spain, Gibraltar, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Somalia) will be the longest until 2168. Chapters explain the climatology of each eclipse track, chart the sky during totality, and advise precisely where and when to see it – with detailed information on duration, altitude and timings for various locations. Such travel advice is critical, because the best eclipse-viewing locations tend to be in relatively remote places that either require careful planning or advance booking on specialist tours, which have limited capacity. A complementary chapter helps the beginner understand eclipse science, the types of solar eclipse and great historical eclipses. Another details other minor eclipses during 2024–2027 plus the annular eclipses due in 2023 and 2028, when the moon obscures all but the outer ring of the sun. Another chapter provides advice on how to prepare for and photograph solar eclipses. Throw in a schedule of eclipses through to 2050, and listings for tour operators specialising in eclipse tourism and the result is the most detailed eclipse guide around – perfect for everyone from beginners to experts via anyone who wants an excuse to travel somewhere different.
