We went up to the roof of the physics building at Ben Gurion University in Beer Sheva where a public viewing session was being held. Here a group of students uses eclipse glasses and a small Meade telescope to view the eclipse. |
On top of the physics building at BGU is a large dome with a 16 inch Meade schmidt cassegrain telescope. Here a student uses a small solar telescope attached to the Meade tube. |
An impressionistic view of the eclipse through my No. 12 welder's glass. |
The sun at mid-eclipse, about 4:15PM, partially obscured by an antenna on a nearby building. |
The sun, 20% eclipsed. This is what it looked like through my No. 12 welder's glass filter. |
The sun sets behing the BGU computer science building. |
A rather impressionist view with the filter tiled from the perpendicular. |
