This is the year astronomers have been waiting for, a total solar eclipse, at its maximum length of seven minutes, and right here in the Americas. As reported in the Sky the sun to be behind the moon that tong, everything must be just right.

In her civic life, she is also a member of the Daughters of Isis. and Telescope last November, untold thousands of amateur and profes sional astronomers have already made travel arrangements to see the July 11, 1991 eclipse of the sun. In many cases, their plans started years ago, especially for Hawaii's Big Island and Mexico's Baja Peninsula. Countless people are also expected to flock to the 40,000-foot summit of Kilauea, Hawaii, the world's only active "drive-in" volcano, and the upper slopes of 13,679-foot Mauna Loa. The eclipse centerline will make two landfalls in Mexico, one on the Baja Peninsula and the other on the mainland a few minutes later. Observers anywhere in the eclipse path on Baja California Sur stand a high probability of witnessing totali ty, since clouds are few in July. The government in South Baja is already preparing for the onslaught of eclipse chasers. The Army, Navy, and police will be enlisted to help. It really is the big one. Let me explain something here. To non-astronomers, a seven-minute eclipse is no big deal, but in order for tances, seem the same size to an observer on the earth's surface. The moon's average distance from the earth is 240,000 miles, and the sun's average distance is 93,000,000 miles. The diameter of the moon is 2,160 miles, and the sun's diameter is about 860,000 miles. The earth is not always the same distance from the sun. Some times it is much farther than the average distance, and sometimes nearer. The moon is also farther and nearer to the earth than its average distance. If the earth is close to the sun (the sun would then be larger), and the moon is at its farthest from the earth (the moon would be small er), at the time of eclipse the moon would not cover the sun completely, and the sun is seen as a ring around the edge of the moon. This is called an annular eclipse. The moon is 4(X) times smaller than the sun, but it is about 400 times nearer the earth. As a result, the sun and moon have almost exact ly the same angular size (about 1/2 degree), so at their mean distances it is possible for the moon to obscure the sun. Now if the earth is at a distance so that the sun is small (more than average), and the moon is at a dis tance from the earth so that it is large (nearer than average), at the time of eclipse, the "small" sun will take a longer time to pass behind the'"large" moon. Astronomers like for the sun to stay behind the moon a long time as it gives them more time for their investigation of certain occurrences. But more on that later. Below is a drawing of the eclipse path. lolunteers receive honors __ tsytli County volunteers received special awards at a luncheon spon- dby United Way of Forsyth County Friday, April 26, at the M.C.
