I didn't know there was to be a solar eclipse this year? So is it a full one for you folks in the northern hemisphere or only partial?
And besides I'm sure this type of thing happens every day, Or at least night, I believe what happens is the earth gets in front of the sun so that the side of the earth furtherest away from the sun is eclipsed from seeing it, and it gets very dark on that furtherest away side. -----Original Message----- From: 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, 19 August 2017 9:40 AM To: [email protected] Subject: App to make the solar eclipse accessible Hi, People living anywhere proximate to the coming solar eclipse might want to look into a special app intended to help blind and visually impaired people experience this upcoming celestial event: https://www.space.com/37746-solar-eclipse-experience-for-visually-impaired.html The app, Eclipse Soundscape, may well be available via Itunes Appstore. I haven't checked, though. Enjoy!
