Question by Dan: Did you hear about the Solar Eclipse that happened right after the Argentina game was over?
The sun was blotted out and everything was really dark. People were scared and fearing the end of the world. Then Diego Maradona stepped out of the way and things lit back up and the people all exhaled a sigh of relief.

Solar Eclipse is the 1995 sequel to the 3DO and Playstation game, Total Eclipse (or Total Eclipse Turbo) which was released in 1993/1994 (sources indicate 1994, but it was in development and technically ready for sale in 1993). The game's plot deals with you, the player (with a troubled past; codename Stuntman), joining a new space squadron aboard a Tomlinson-class carrier as a member of Red Team, as RT's ace pilot has been injured. There's trouble on a mining colony on Janus which eventually leads you to investigate the various moons around Saturn. You not only have to repair your damaged reputation, but gain the trust of your allies and the respect of your captain. Solar Eclipse was released in the US for the Sega Saturn (whereas a "late" release under it's alternative name, Titan Wars, was released for Playstation in Europe; it was released in Japan and Europe under Titan Wars for Saturn as well), which is a bit of a shame as it's actually a rather cool game. Solar Eclipse is notable for its high-quality FMVs of the time and the acting talents of Claudia Christian and Gary Hudson (who is the player character). Additionally, the game has several cool easter eggs such as various hidden levels, some based on other Crystal Dynamics titles like "The Horde" and "Off-World Interceptor". The audio/visuals are great and the gameplay, while simple with few power-ups (though you do get help from your teammates which is neat, reminding me of Star Fox, except they aren't as needy ...

When's the Next Full Solar Eclipse in Florida?
Question by : When's the Next Full Solar Eclipse in Florida?
I never got to see a full solar eclipse. I know your never suppost to look straight at one, but I think it's cool having Night, at the middle of the day. I'm at Florida, so I want to know whens the next good Solar Eclipse in Florida?
Best answer:
Answer by RickBTo see a TOTAL solar eclipse from Florida, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until August 12, 2045. If you're willing to travel a little (say, to South Carolina), there's one on August 21, 2017.
NASA has an excellent website that will tell you everything you need to know about eclipses past, present and future: (http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse.html ).

Total Lunar Eclipse 15 Jun 2011 The first lunar eclipse of 2011 occurs at the Moon's ascending node in southern Ophiuchus about 7° west of the Lagoon Nebula (M8). The Moon passes deeply through Earth's umbral shadow during this rather long event. The total phase itself lasts 100 minutes. The last eclipse to exceed this duration was in July 2000. The Moon's contact times with Earth's umbral and penumbral shadows are listed below. Penumbral Eclipse Begins: 17:24:34 UT Partial Eclipse Begins: 18:22:56 UT Total Eclipse Begins: 19:22:30 UT Greatest Eclipse: 20:12:37 UT Total Eclipse Ends: 21:02:42 UT Partial Eclipse Ends: 22:02:15 UT Penumbral Eclipse Ends: 23:00:45 UT At the instant of greatest eclipse the umbral eclipse magnitude will reach 1.6998 as the Moon's centre passes within 5.3 arc-minutes of the shadow axis. The Moon's southern limb will lay 54.2 arc-minutes from the edge of the umbra while the northern limb will lay 22.3 arc-minutes from the umbra's edge. Thus, the northern regions of the Moon will probably appear brighter than the southern regions that lie deeper in the shadow. Since the Moon samples a large range of umbral depths during totality, its appearance will change dramatically with time. It is difficult to predict the exact brightness distribution in the umbra so observers are encouraged to estimate the Danjon value at different times during totality. The June 15 total lunar eclipse is the 34th member of Saros 130, a series of 71 eclipses occurring in ...
