GeorgeS Posted April 23, 2017 Share #1 Posted April 23, 2017 (edited) I just found information, there will be a total Eclipse of the Sun, on Aug 21st this summer. It will start on the Oregon Coast line at 16:48:39 Universal Time ( 9:48 AM PST ) with total eclipse at 17:15:58 UCT. It will pass over Or. ID, Wyo, Kan, Mo, KY, Tn, and SC. ( Coast to Coast ) Duration of totality, will be 2 min. 40 sec. Info I found says you have to be within + or - 60 miles of the line to see it in totality. Plan a nice " Day Trip " RIDE, if you have a free day, and a full tank of gas !!!! Anyway if your " On the Road" on Aug 21 this summer, watch the show !! Go to NASA web site for detailed info, and Map. I just found this info few min. ago, so will be marking the calendar, and plan a trip, of about 5 hours run South on I-5, to Eugene, Ore. to get into the perfect position to watch it. Will have to leave about 5 AM. Do a Google Search, find details, for viewing, depending on your location across the U.S. Edited April 23, 2017 by GeorgeS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
