[AstroNet] Eclipse on Sunday

[Claire Flanagan]

Please let me know if any of you are having eclipse viewing events, by 4pm today please if you want me to include it in our newsletter!

We've put some more stuff on our website - pinhole projection art (won't work too well in SA for such a small eclipse, but fun to try anyway, keeps the kids very busy!).  Also alternative material for direct naked-eye viewing:

*         space blanket (from Dischem, R15 for metres of it!) (USE 3 LAYERS)

*         Five Roses or Pick'n'Pay Ceylon teabag foil wrapper (use 2 layers)

*         and the small purple Cadbury's Dairy Milk bars give an ok view through the purple printed part
