Sun Spotting

The solar eclipse yesterday only covered about one-third of the sun in my part of the world, and I don't have eclipse glasses. I did poke a hole in a piece of cardboard and project the sun's image on a wall, so I did see the partially-eclipsed sun that way. For the actual eclipse, I put the NASA coverage on my personal machine while working. My supervisor lives in Fort Worth, and got lucky with the weather and was able to go have a look when it passed over her. My director took the day off to take his family eclipse-hunting, and they also got lucky with the weather; they shared some of the photos of the event that they took.

It's a pity that the totality path didn't cross Fernley, as the viewing conditions would have been excellent.
