How Total is a Total Solar Eclipse ??

That page he tells us to read is nothing.,but to him it gives the answers(go figure) Hagars true colors come out when he is told how stupid he is. Take Baily's beads,they are caused by bits of the solar disk shining through the irregular terrain of mountains,and valleys on the lunar surface. Total eclipse in 1919 made the name Einstein a house hold name. How much light bent he predicted very accurate,and I find that measurement very interesting. I never knew what star they used?(still don't) Before and after Photography was needed,and I like that. Bert The stars Eddigton used were the Hyades, a cluster of bright stars that he knew the Sun would be passing through right at the time of the eclipse. http://www.firstscience.com/site/articles/coles.asp They are the eye of the bull, Taurus. http://www.astro.uiuc.edu/~kaler/sow/hyades-p.html Double-A |

In article , "Hagar" wrote:
"G=EMC^2 Glazier" wrote in message ... Hagar (the horrible) The Moon has mountains and they are to tall to be crater ridges. The tallest mountain in the solar system is on Mars its name is "Olympus Mons" its height is 16 miles,and plate tectonics had nothing to do with creating this mountain. It was a volcano(get the picture) The hills and mountains on the Moon came from volcanoes over 2.3 billion years ago. Reality is there is lava flow still seen on its surface. Looking at a picture of it as I type This sea of solidified lava is called "Maria" Turned to another nice picture I have with astronaut James Irwin in the driver's seat as he drives by a very tall hill or short mountain It even has a nice peak and looks little like the Great Pyramid only bigger. I know your ego Hagar will make you not go back to your stupid post. It might make your dim brain block this information. Go in one ear and out the other. Well best to remember a total eclipse is a much better match up than an annular eclipse. Bert Beeert, speaking of dim brains, you are full of it. Go to this page and get an education: http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr161/l...n_surface.html You will notice that the Moon has "highlands", which are a far cry from the mountains you suggest one sees at its edge during a solar eclipse. I can't stop you from posting crap, but to save yourself some embarrassment, do a little research before firing from the hip. Surely you have heard of "Google" ... try it, you might just like it. Hagar, it doesn't happen often, but Bert is right. There are mountains on the moon, and several of them are even *named*. When lunar scientists refer to the highlands and lowlands, they are just distinguishing between two very different areas on the moon. And I saw something in another post of yours where you mentioned that they can't be mountains because the moon doesn't have plate tectonics. That's utterly irrelevant. By definition a mountain is a certain height above a reference point, it doesn't have to be formed by plate tectonics. |

Kerr I once knew when a hill becomes a mountain,and I think it was
2500 feet?? Still I can't get the thought out of my mine how total a total eclipse is. Mother nature did that right. How much better is the moon than using a coronagraph? |

Tom are there more than one type of coronagraph? Why is it not discussed
more? It seems such a great feature for telescopes for taking pictures of the Sun. are they all made of metal? are some made like a washer? Bert |

Astronomers have already covered all of that old fool, BEERTbrain!
READ SOME OF THE AVAILABLE LITERATURE BEFORE YOU WASTE MORE OF OUR TIME!

It shows the uneven rays of light surrounding the black Moon.(breath taking) Is the Moon a perfect size disk? Do the mountains on the Moon have any effect? how much better could this total effect be? what are the odds of size and distance creating such a great blocking of the Sun? Bert |

Look up the literature on coronagraphs, old stupid fool, BEERTbrain!
I've told you before several times now that a washer just won't do the job. The solar light stop is usually a reflective cone which throws most of the Sun's light out of the beam path thus allowing the corona to be viewed.
