ReconRat Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 (edited) Actually just starting, it is now visible from America and Pacific. It will continue through tomorrow from observing sites in Europe and South of there. You can watch it without burning your eyeballs out. Live broadcasts on line from NASA cameras in New Mexico and Hawaii.http://sunearthday.gsfc.nasa.gov/webcasts/nasatv/http://events.slooh.com/edit: It won't happen again till 2117.

Lilbit Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 I was going to make a box to watch it from but didn't. One hour ago the sun was shining bright to the east of my house. It would have been perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baptizo Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 The rain has been going through my area so I can't see it locally but I have watched it via the NASA broadcast which has been very informative, educational, and cool to watch.
