Solar Eclipse – Live Feed

A rare partial solar eclipse will be viewable in Glasgow on Friday March 20th, with the maximum eclipse (the moon covering 94% of the Sun) occurring at 09:34am.

We have a live* feed at http://www.astro.gla.ac.uk/eclipse/live.html from University of Glasgow Observatory, updated every minute. There are also two viewing locations on the Main Campus University of Glasgow, where there will be telescopes and viewers to let you safely see the eclipse directly (weather permitting)

Thanks to the undergraduate solar project group, Peter Wakeford and Graham Kerr for setting this up and making the observations.

*The feed will be live and update during 8am to 11am Friday 20th March. Before then it will show a static test image taken with the same telescope & filter setup.
