Hi $username
(You have received this IceInSpace update because you requested to be on the list. Honest! An explanation is at the bottom of this email, and also info on how to be extracted from the list.)
* Upcoming Event: Partial Solar Eclipse - 7th February 2008
A Solar Eclipse occurs when the Moon passes in front of part or all of the Sun, which casts a shadow over a certain area of the Earth. Observers in South-East Australia and New Zealand will be able to view a "Partial Solar Eclipse" (a bite taken out of the Sun) on the 7th February, 2008.
I've written an article which will give you all the information you need to prepare for this rare event - including:
- What is a Solar Eclipse?
- When and Where can I see it?
- Viewing / Observing Guide
- Photography / Imaging Guide
- Upcoming Solar Eclipses
You can read the article by clicking on the link below:

It is extremely dangerous to view the Sun without specially designed filters - so with 2 months to go, it gives you time to buy the filters you need to observe and photograph this event.
A discussion thread has been created on IceInSpace to talk about the event:
