    Seeing an annular eclipse is an excellent application of orbital mechanics! Enjoy!

      I intend to. Provided I don’t get trapped in the desert for days. We’re bringing extra food, water, and eclipse glasses to auction to the highest bidder, though.

      We didn’t even plan this. The opportunity came up before I even knew that I could take a tour and see this.
