Total Eclipse of the Heart....Just Kidding!


No, this will not be an blog paying homage to the 80's hit by Bonnie Tyler. Sorry!

After publishing my blog about the International Space Station, I received a comment regarding where to find information about astrological events such as this. After a little research I found the following sites:

For Solar and Lunar Eclipses .... The NASA Eclipse Home Page, which tells information and predictions about when the next Solar or Lunar Eclipses will happen as well as other planetary and other Solar System news. (Apparently there was a total Lunar Eclipse early this morning, Aug. 28, that I missed. The image to the left is a view of the start of the eclipse from San Francisco.)

For the International Space Station ... NASA's International Space Station Home-page -- which has all sorts of info about the ISS and it has a link called See the ISS in the Night Sky, where you can find information about when the Space Station will be visible over your area of the world.

Apparently NASA has a wide variety of information for kids and adults. They have information about Shuttle flights and possible missions to Mars.

And now for something really cool! It is a view of an eclipse as seen from the International Space Station. It is awesome!!!!
