Title: Eclipse Bulletin: Total Solar Eclipse of 2024 April 08 - Color Edition
Author(s): Fred Espenak and Jay Anderson
Other Info: 8.5" by 11", 105 pages, Paperback, 10.5 oz item wt.
On Monday, 2024 April 08, a total eclipse of the Sun will be visible from the contiguous United States for the first time since 2017. The track of the Moon's umbral shadow begins in the Pacific Ocean and crosses northern Mexico before reaching the USA. Traveling southwest to northeast, it sweeps through fifteen states: Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. The path of totality also crosses six Canadian provinces: Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland. Within the 88 to 126 mile-wide path of totality, the Moon will completely cover the Sun as the landscape is plunged into an eerie twilight and the Sun's glorious corona is revealed for nearly 4 and 1/2 minutes.
Eclipse Bulletin: Total Solar Eclipse of 2024 April 08 is the ultimate guide to this much anticipated event. Written by two of the leading experts on eclipses, the bulletin is a treasure trove of facts on every conceivable aspect of the eclipse. Exact details about the path of the Moon's shadow can be found in a series of tables containing geographic coordinates, times, altitudes, and physical dimensions.
Eleven high resolution maps plot the total eclipse track across Mexico, the USA, and Canada. The large map scale (1 inch ≈ 53 miles) shows hundreds of cities and towns in the path, the location of major roads and highways, and the duration of totality with distance from the central line.
An additional sixteen maps give close-ups of major cities on or very near the edges of the eclipse path.
Local circumstance tables for hundreds cities throughout Mexico, the USA, and Canada provide times for each phase of the eclipse along with the eclipse magnitude, duration and Sun's altitude. These tables include the effect of the Moon's profile on the contact times.
A section on weather prospects is filled with cloud frequency maps and tables to help identify areas along the eclipse path where the highest probability of favorable weather may be found. Finally, comprehensive information is presented about solar filters and how to safely observe the eclipse.
For 15 years, Fred Espenak and Jay Anderson published more than a dozen eclipse bulletins for NASA, each one covering a major solar eclipse. Prepared in cooperation with the IAU, the bulletins were internationally recognized as the most authoritative reference for each eclipse. The team has reunited to produce this new bulletin on the 2024 total eclipse through North America.
