Ring of Fire Eclipse live stream

[bejay1957]

For those of us in the UK or under cloud (I know, pretty much the same thing!), SLOOH will be having a live stream of this Southern hemisphere eclipse - was supposed to have started at 1200 UKT

Blimey - you'd think they clean the optical surfaces! More dust bunnies that in my imaging train! 

Eclipse to begin in about 1 minute!

I just picked up this thread in time - found the site with 5 mins to go - ideal IMO - we all watched it here using the internet :-)  Thanks for the heads-up

Amazing sight to see. Fantastic how the moons disc fits into the suns, just leaving that Annulus they term the ring of fire.
Reminds me of a Johnny Cash Song.

Doh and double doh!

I was watching live and decided to check my e-mails in another window.  When I got back to the Slooh live window I estimated there was about five minutes to go.  After a few minutes I said to my landlady "This seems incredibly slow".  Well it would, I had accidentally paused it!

Missed it completely.  Didn't feel the same in replay!

As I said - Doh and double doh!
