Getting ready for the eclipse tomorrow? MAKEzine has again linked to our little Vardo. We were fortunate to get a really neat lighting effect during the 2012 eclipse playing over our camp.
Light coming through the trees created a pinhole effect focusing the eclipse in dozens of images as we were packing to leave.
As we slide around the sun for yet another year we can experience a little science and scale and think about our place in the solar system. If you are interested in learning more, check out NASA’s Eclipse Page by clicking the banner below:
…and HEY KIDS, don’t look directly into the sun. You Makers can get out the welding goggles (with a rating of 15 or higher) and have a look.
