Ann, You might find these useful http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/eclipse.html http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/OH/OH2007.html#2007Mar03T http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/OH/image1/LE2007Mar03-Fig1.GIF http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/OH/OH2007.html#2007Aug28T http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/OH/image1/LE2007Aug28-Fig3.GIF The March 2007 has little to offer Utah viewers. The August 2007 event is much more promising, but the timing requires the viewer to arise in the wee hours to view it. I have Starry Night Pro, and can generate a quicktime movie of how it would appear from Utah. If that would be helpful to you, let me know. Regards, Jim Cobb

I have been invited to speak to a group of neighborhood girl scouts in a couple of weeks. They would like to hear about eclipses. Darn - I have good presentations on black holes and the discovery of planets outside of our solar system... Anyway, am I reading my NASA eclipse home page correctly by assuming that we will see glimpses of two lunar eclipses this coming year? I get the feeling that from here they will be pretty un-exciting. Am I correct?
