Actually, it wasn't the first Solar eclipse in three years as we had an Annular-Total last year in April (which was a small partial in parts of the US) and an Annular in October. It WAS the first fully total Solar in three years. The 2003 Total Solar in November of that year was unique in that it occured at local MIDNIGHT in Antarctica.

Solar eclipses are fun to watch (safely, that is).

I remember the May 10, 1994 annular eclipse. I used two pieces of cardboard with a pinhole poked through one piece.

It was interesting to see the leaves on the trees make little eclipse shadows on the ground.

I viewed the 1994 Annular in Bisbee and videotaped and saw the 1970 Total in VA
