August 21, 2017. Totality at Klondike Park, on Missouri Hwy 94 near Augusta. The streak is a contrail from a NASA eclipse chase aircraft. ![]() The Sun Funnel worked really well for all partial phases of the eclipse. The yellow sundial helped align the Meade StarNavigator mount to true north. Old and new technology! Here is Ed White with his gear. He had a C-8 with a white light filter, a Lunt 60mm solar scope, and a Canon camera with white light filter controlled by software on a laptop, all riding on an iOptron mount. What an exciting day for all of us! Our Outreach Coordinator outreach at asemonline dot org handles groups who want astronomy for groups. Click HERE to see if you are in the path of totality!
