[Chaos-l] March 3rd Eclipse

[Jayme Hanzak]

As I am sure most of you know, March 3rd is a full eclipse of the the
Moon. For us, the Moon will rise in total eclipse. The Moon should rise
around 6:09pm. Totality starts at 22:44:13 UT/17:44:13 LT.

Walter Fowler has arranged for us to watch the eclipse from East Chapel
Hill High with Moorehead Planetarium. Thanks Walter!
We are meeting at the football field and watching from the stands.
Telescopes can be set up on the running track around the field. We can
park in the student parking lot close to the field.

There is another school event the same evening starting at 7:30pm, so
parking could be an issue later on.

Here is a NASA web site with more eclipse information.
