Total Solar Eclipse Coming

A total solar eclipse, taking place on Oct. 2, is a high-
light of the astronomical year. It will be visible in part of the

United States.
By JAMES STOKLEY

THE MAIN feature on the astronotnical
program for October is the first total eclipse
of the sun visible in any part of the United
States or Canada since 1954 and the last
until 1970. On Friday morning, Oct. 2,
people who live east of a line extending
approximately from the eastern shore of
Lake Michigan to Tallahassee, Fla., will see
the sun rise at least partially eclipsed by the
moon. That is, they will see it if the sky
is clear along the eastern horizon.

And, for a few favored locations in
Massachusetts (including Boston) and
southern New Hampshire, the rising sun
will be totally eclipsed. It will be com-
pletely hidden by the moon and its outer-
most layer, the corona, will be visible
around it, With the intense glare of the
colar dise cut off, the faint corona comes
into View.

Of course, clouds or early-morning mists
may well interfere with the view of the
total eclipse around Boston. However, from
\fassachusetts, the path along which it is
visible extends over the Atlantic Ocean,
toward the Canary Islands and the coast
of Africa. There a much better view is
likely, Many astronomical expeditions have
traveled to these locations, to make the ob-
servations that can best be carried out
when the sun is thus hidden.

Jupiter and Saturn Seen

As for the evening skies of October, two
bright planets are visible, but you will have
to look rather early to see one of them.
lupiter, the brighter, is in the constellation
£ Scorpius, the scorpion, and sets, at the
eginning of October, only two hours after
unset. Thus it does not appear on the ac-
companying maps, which depict the sky as
it appears about 10 p.m. your own kind
of standard time (add one hour for day-
light saving time) at the first of October,
a) hour earlier at the middle and two
hours earlier at the end.

Jupiter is now about seven and a_ half
tunes as bright as Saturn, the other planet,

hich is in Sagittarius, the archer. Part
t this constellation is shown on our maps,

t net that ia which Saturn stands. This

met sets in early October about four

rs after the sun, just a liele before the

es for which our maps are drawn.
lightest star of these evenings 1s
ci, high in the west in Lyra, the lyre.
cond brightest is Capella, in Auriga, the
ricteer, which is in the northeast. Then
mes Altar, coward the soudhwest, in
tla. the eagls, a little to the left of Lyra.
Vad ubave Lyra (shown partly on the

een

Pe ee ee ee eee ee ee ee

northern map and partly on the southern)
is Cygnus, the swan, with the star called
Deneb.

Low in the cast Taurus, the bull, is
coming into view, with Aldebaran, While
this star, like the others mentioned, is of
the first magnitude, its low altitude makes
it appear fainter than it would when higher
in the sky. This is true also of Fomalhaut,
in Piscis Austrinus, the southern fish, low
in the south.

Although it contains no first-magnitude
stars, a prominent October constellation is
Pegasus, the winged horse, which is high
in the south. In this is the “Great Square”
and if you know it, you will be able to lo-
cate several other groups. Alpheratz, the
star in the upper left-hand corner of the
square, is in the next-<loor constellation of
Andromeda, the chained princess. Below
the square are the Ashes, Pisces. The line
of stars beginning with Markab, in the
lower righthand corner of the square, is
supposed to form the horse’s head, and be-
low it is Aquarius, the water-carrier. And
off to the right of Pegasus is Cygnus, which
we have already mentioned.

Although Jupiter and Saturn are the only
evening planets at present, Venus is a bril-
liant object in the east after it rises about

three hours before the sun. It is in the
constellation of Lea, the hon, and it will be
of maximum brilliance on Oct. 8. After
that it will gradually fade and will go be-
hind the sum mext June, reappearing next
autumn as a brilliant evening star. Mer-
cury and Mars are now too nearly in line
with the sun to be seen; the latter passes
behind it on Oct. 29.

Referring again to the total eclipse, it is
rather curious that the last two such events
which were visible in the United States
also were seen just alter sunrise.

A total eclipse of the sun occurs when
the moon's shadow sweeps across the earth.
Because the sun is so much bigger than
the moon the lunar shadow tapers to a
point at about our distance. Sometimes it
fails to reach earth at all. If at such a time
the moon passes in front of the sun that
body is not completely hidden; there is a
ring of the solar disc visible around the
moon, and we have what is called an annu-
lar eclipse.

But with a total eclipse, the tip of the
shadow does reach the earth. It may be
a hundred miles or so in diameter, and it
sweeps across jind and sea, from west to
cast, tracing out the long ribbon-shaped
path of totality, from which the total
eclipse is visible. Over a much larger ‘area
there is a partial eclipse, with the moon
coming only partly in front of the sun.

On July 9, 1945, the shadow tp touched
earth at sunrise in Idaho, so the path of
torality started there and went northeast-

Friday, 22rd October 1959 Between 10
and il p.m. oy Micah AIGABA, Rexis-
tered Mission Teacher, Anglican Missioo,
Pumani M.B.D. Papua. In the Daga
country, at foot of Mt. Gwoira Range.

A very big Ught came over from the
direction of Boianai (about 40 miles to
the S.E.) It came straight towards Mount
Gwoira (a precipitous mountain about
4500 ft. high, which stands about § miles
E. of Pumani, dominating the scene).
At first it was quite low, but when it
reached the vicinity of Mt. Gwoira it
ascended until it appeared to be verti-
cally over the summit of the mountain.
it then hovered stauonary for a long
time (an hour? the observer had no
wateh}. Finally it descended unti) it
seemed almost to touch the too of the
mountain, but moved away in a portb-
ward direction, keeping about the same
neight, passing over Monar? and Medino
apd then veering eastwards and circling
round the coastline of the Cape Vogel
Peninsula (apparently, though it was
probably much nearer) and finally dis-
appearing in the direction cf Botanai
again.

The appearance of the ught was round
a disc or a giobe’). It was dazziinaly
>right, especially when moving and
chansed colour conUnuously, the basic
colours being green, red and yellow.
Parts cf the oodject showed different
“sours simultaneously. “IM twink!ed.'’
The colours changed about every three
m.nutes. (This seems contradictory, but
here it is). it was about equal to half
